This is a good quality short film. The cinematography and lighting is strong. Shaun O'Connell directed this film skillfully. Matt Klundt helmed the camera with decisiveness. The acting is good. Steven Luke offers a solid performance. He expressed his emotions well with limited dialog. The story needs some development. As a competition piece, the limited runtime (7 minutes) constrained the back story and forced the plot pacing. I saw this film at the South Dakota Film Festival and it was an award winner at the Fischgaard Short Film Project. The crowd reacted well to the uncomplicated story line. I think these characters should be explored and the story line developed. As these young filmmakers hone their craft this film will improve.
