Red Carpet Crash "It's really remarkable what this film is able to achieve in its brief 10-minute run time. It tells a successful mystery, hooking the viewer right up until the credits roll, but that never detracts from the emotional significance of a story like this." Dan Barnes BRWC "At just over ten minutes long, this is a tightly, expertly scripted and executed drama that will leave you wanting to see more." Vulture Hound " ... a short film that tests our perceptions and leaves us questioning our own prejudices and assumptive nature." Red Carpet Crash "A sharp and provocative mystery."
