Every year there are numerous independent films that are really hyped up and considered must-see films. Most of them are overrated. This one is not overrated. It is well done. The acting of both lead characters is very good, conveying how they are at once satisfied with themselves, and hence don't need to cling to any other person, but are nevertheless lonely and would like to find someone to share their lives with. The subplots exist merely to deepen the understanding of the characters, to show the conflicts which they face and which shape them. The camera-work makes the film seem almost like a documentary, which helps keep it from being cheesy and highlights the natures of the various characters. Overall a well-crafted movie.
