Where the film falls short, at times, is in Pace and Coon's representation of grieving and renewal. Whether it's an issue in the dialogue or direction, the actors struggle to break outside the same emotional quadrant.

Film Inquiry

Those who take a chance will be treated to a pensive, slow-moving story told almost as a play might be - mostly in one location, around three actors, forgoing style and punch to instead mine the depths of the human soul.

The film is a moving and emotional journey, and even manages a jump scare or two for healthy measure.

Rated: 4/4

A beautiful film full of rich imagery and deep relationships. Yes, there is the thriller aspect, but it's couched in deep, Hitchcock-like tension. The love story of the couple will break and mend your heart. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A true gem. Touching. Main actors, music, direction, and photography are top-notch. I can't understand why this movie didn't have a proper distribution...

A beautiful, moving tale of true familial love. IT will bring on the tears but gives your hope for the afterlife, if there is one. The acting was phenomenal and real. You will fall in love with the characters and truly feel for them.
