While preparing her late mother's seaside cottage for sale, a woman (Bridget Collins) discovers a homeless artist (Adeel Akhtar) living there. She invites him to stay in an adjoining shed, and the two form a fragile bond.

One of the assets of "Stranger Things" is its air of mystery, and the actors give the indelible impression that they have much locked away inside.

Hollywood Reporter

A quietly elegant chamber piece that, at 77 minutes, is careful not to wear out its welcome.

Film Journal International

This ultra-slight, minimalist and arty affair brims over with indie ennui.

Difficult to take any of this plot seriously. Slow and rather ridiculous.

The only reason I started watching this was that a friend told me to watch "Stranger things". When I started talking about the show with my friends, I realized that I have been watching the wrong "Stranger things" series, which was a laugh at first, but here I am enjoying both shows now. PS: The other one is better IMO, but this one is great also.
