This film should be required viewing for any indie filmmaker with a dream to successfully get their projects to an audience. It's a strong example of what's possible when a filmmaker commits fully to telling a personal story without waiting for permission. The story itself is engaging, centered around a couple facing a real, relatable roadblock in their relationship. There's a grounded honesty in the way their struggles are portrayed, which makes it easy to connect with their journey.
The film consistently rises above what you might expect from a typical indie. It's visually thoughtful, well-paced, and clearly made with intention. The technical aspects never distract from the emotional core; instead, they serve the story quietly and effectively. It's the kind of movie that reminds you that elevated indie filmmaking isn't about flashy production value - it's about clarity of vision and emotional resonance.
Beyond the film itself, the story of how it made its way to theaters is just as important. Watch the film, but also take time to learn about the incredible amount of work, resilience, and creativity that went into getting it in front of an audience. It's a real-world example of independent film succeeding on its own terms - not because it had the biggest budget, but because the filmmakers refused to be ignored. For filmmakers serious about carving their own path, this is a film (and a journey) worth studying.
