That was absolutely AMAZING! The actress Alexis Louder, was OUTSTANDING.
My heart raced the whole way through. It's every mothers nightmare - losing a baby at birth or pre-birth.
It was hard to follow what was real and what was in her imagination - E.g., her mother was so unsympathetic and self-centred. The male friend, I'm unsure if he truly thought she was coming into him, after losing her baby; or was that her imagination. No matter though, because the whole point was EVERYONE was ignoring her needs and her pain.
The same with the hospital doctors dismissive attitude - was that truly because she was black? That stuck with me. Then at the end the title of her story confirmed my thoughts. It broke my heart realising it was true that she was treated badly because of her colour. I am a white woman and I'm ashamed of my colour a lot of the time. We are all GOD's children. We are FAMILY.
The final scenes where she was being dragged off and beaten, like a demonic entity has grabbed her. It was then the Penny dropped for me, and what ended up being my title came to me. IT WAS HER ALL ALONG!!!
Struggling to forgive herself. So destructive. A truly beautiful and moving short that will stay with me forever.
Pleased to see Bradley Cooper's name attached.
BRAVO to the Director MEGALYN ECHIKUNWOKE. Also, INDEPENDENT FILMS.
