This was one of the most humble stories i have the opportunity too see!
Excellent script, hooks you from the beginning with the crisp editing. Casting is spot on and you don’t see the ending until the last minute. Worth a view!
The acting in this drama was beyond excellent. What a reversal from the films I have settled with in the past few years.
Great story, sad but very real, raw emotions
Like bad jazz all dissonance no resolution. Acting superb. Could be a series if they could graciously through the audience a crumb of resolution here and there. Oh and in real life PD don't act so rigorously on behalf of clients...it is an affluent persons fantasy.
