While is feels very amateurish, the characters have charm... Go to Full Review
Norman Gidney Film Threat 06/05/2020
4/10
Sad to say that there are few melodic moments and a lot of elements that don't work at all. Go to Full Review
Kerr Lordygan TV Fanatic 06/02/2020
1.1/5
As it stands, the underexplained semi sci-fi element is bizarrely juxtaposed with the under-developed love story and an under-executed sub-plot that appears to have been slapped in to add dramatic value. Go to Full Review
Amanda Jane Stern Film Inquiry 06/02/2020
There is so much going on in this movie and none of the elements ever really come together to form a cohesive story. Go to Full Review

Peter K @Vacadoug Dec 14 Without questioning lead Frederick Keeve's musical talents, the rest of this work was stilted and unbalanced. There is a an irony here about the repetitive scenes of the car wreck that sadly had to be a moniker for the overall rating of this film production. See more Jack T 04/14/2024 Whoe doesn't love a good ballet-based romance? But, alas, this is genuinely terrible. Written, directed, and starring Frederick Keeve, who doesn't seem to have anyone who told him he couldn't be everything in this vanity project. Keeve plays Jason, whose backstory is painfully evident within the first few minutes of the film, which is thickly overlaid with New Age faux-sensitivity. Jason, having been in a tragic car accident, is now accompanist to a wonderfully demanding ballet class. But his young student, who appears to have a genuine talent, falls hopelessly and unimaginably in love with the morose, uninteresting pianist. Of course, the gorgeous young talent has an abusive boyfriend - who also has lung cancer? I kid you not. It goes from unlikely to impossible to far-fetched to ridiculous from scene to scene.
