2/5
A drama that explores a young mans grief.
The 2-minute drama opens with Ace seeking religious solace in his local church. His state of emotional distress is evident throughout. After a visit to the graveside, he builds enough courage to opens a letter from his late father, which just might move his life forward.
The film would benefit from additional scenes that showcase the characters development and progress. Cinematography, sound and editing is of an acceptable standard for an amateur production. The use of a vocal soundtrack throughout the film doesn’t play well and comes across excessive and unnecessary. Alexandra Maxwell (Filmmaker) has creative potential and we look forward to seeing her career develop.
