Vestige

I liked it for fair exploration of sensitive subjects. For nostalgic game with audiotapes. For the fascinating try to reconciliate with past. And, not last, for the nuances of grief, fair - inspired translated by the performances of young Ben Hackett .and senior Steve Evets.

A teenager looking for save his lost father. Each clue - from a fossil to audio cassettes are used, remake for the definition of truth. The attitude of grandfather is far to be an appreciation one . But the enthusiasm of youth, defined by intense fervour - this is the great work of Ben Hackett performance and the axis of film.

The end, no doubts is a fairy tale final. The dark secret, the enthusiastic young man, the manipulation from dark character. And the return to previews missing.

In short, admirable, from cinematography, craft of story to acting.

No pun intended - anyone who had the ... well let's call it "pleasure" to work audio cassettes and tapes, knows how crazy it was when they ended up in a sort of salad. So this is a bit of a love letter to that - showing the newer generation, what we had to go through .. not having everything one click away ... not mentioning batteries, headphones and so much more.

But this is just part of the short movie. Because as with letting go with old technology, it is also important to let go ... of the past! We can't bring back anyone who is gone - at least not in our universe. But the boy here seems to have found a way ... well it is a movie, so maybe it is possible here? Is it? What do you think? Well let the end ... commence and lift you higher.
