The cinematography by Xanik Xeus and Reid Stegall is an absolute standout, brilliantly capturing the poignancy and beauty of Trevor’s journey. The film’s sound design is equally impressive, with a hauntingly beautiful score that perfectly underscores the emotional weight of the story.
But perhaps the greatest achievement of this short film is its ability to spark crucial discussion surrounding the topic of PTSD and mental health. Rutledge’s screenplay sensitively portrays the often-overlooked struggles of veterans returning to civilian life and the importance of community and creative outlets in recovery. Overall, this is an incredibly touching and deeply thought-provoking film that will stay with viewers long after the credits roll. Highly recommended.
