As the story unfolds, we get an increasingly disturbing glimpse into the inner workings of Craig’s mind and the tangled web of thoughts that lead him to hold such destructive and dangerous feelings towards children.

The cinematography, sound, and editing are top-notch, creating an immersive and deeply unsettling atmosphere throughout. The story is well-crafted and poignant, offering a stark reminder of the importance of supporting those who suffer from these tendencies and bringing the issue out of the shadows.
Overall, this incredible short film is a must-watch for those willing to confront difficult subject matter and serves as an important contribution to the ongoing conversation around child sexual abuse.
