    the film was very clever with a simple narrative and idea, but still kept me interested. At first I found the music too dark and heavy but as we saw the young girl singing along to it, it all came together and I liked the track. Great visuals and actors. Top job!

    Hi

    Fantastic! Cleverly written and directed. There is real talent here that needs to be given a wider audience.

    Your images are great - really sharply in focus, and the colours are brought out really well.

    I felt the acting too superficial and wooden in places, and the flow of innovative cinematography was broken with the standard shot-reverse-shot with the arguing couple.

    The way the narrative is book-ended is nice, and a satisfying ending. However, I couldn't help but feel it was a music video. Was it?

    The shot of the little girls is scarily reminiscent of The Shining. And that's a good thing! (Sorry if that wasn't your idea!!).

    Great film!
