Plight

What a great little indie film this was! I was able to catch this film when it came to our small town film festival and my wife and I were fortunate enough to be at a screening where the filmmakers were in attendance. Perhaps it was my naivety but I was astonished to hear how small their crew was and the budget of course was much smaller than it looked. There are so many excellent films out there and this one in particular stuck with me. It is an indie but you wouldn't know it by the quality of cinematography or the acting or even the storyline. The biggest indicator was that I didn't recognize any of the actors. However, I must say that they were very convincing. The music also felt very professional and the entire production felt top notch. Needless to say, my hat's off to the filmmakers for this fun little film that kept me guessing all the way through. A wonderful night out for me and the wife! We will certainly be back.

I love little indies that could... this movie had me staying up well after I watched it. Kind of just jarred me with how raw I was feeling afterwards. Such a human story and so well acted. Watching it you could feel the emotional waves the characters were going through. Some movies are intense just to be intense with loud yells and action. This movie was intense with all the opposite, the underlying tension and this constant feeling of what is going to happen next? Who is going to lose it? What is going to pop off?! Don't get me wrong I enjoyed the thrill ride it takes you on but it kept me thinking long and hard about what it means to be human. What we are capable of doing to each other... all I know is that I wanted to hug my mother after I watched this. So glad I watch indies because sometimes they feel more authentic than any of the blow em up shoot em up big budget movies that talk at you. Here I felt like I was just in it, and I loved that.

Saw this film at a film festival and loved every minute of it! Granted, there aren't any big names in it but the acting is solid, the story was engaging and the tension was palpable.

It's kind of a mixed bag at festivals but you typically know that going in if you've been to a few. Without giving anything away you're thrown into a world where a father loses his son in a "car accident" and grapples with the aftermath, battling his grief and his desire to find those responsible. Meanwhile his son's fiancée is clinging to life which brings her sister into the fold as a caretaker who helps pick up the pieces. The grieving father and the protective sister form an unlikely bond as they join forces to achieve a seemingly common goal: Justice

Plight was such a breath of fresh air for a genre that often times seems overcooked. Highly recommend!

I was lucky enough to experience the premiere in St. Francis, KS. The director/writer had a Q&A and it was great to hear the behind-the-scenes and stories. Very refreshing to see an original movie with no remake material or flashy special effects. The acting was good and it was nice to see the international connection and close personal parallels with the characters. There were definitely some surprises and twists that made it a unique movie-going experience. Lots of drama and suspense, well worth watching! If you're looking for an exciting film with original content and some poignant connections, give this a try!

Plight takes you on a journey full of unexpected twists and turns. It keeps you engaged the entire time. The visuals are compelling, the storyline is captivating and the performances are dynamic. It was refreshing to watch a film that kept me guessing and didn't feel formulaic. The music throughout felt appropriate for what we the audience should be feeling emotionally and was a great backdrop for the visuals. The editing felt very intentional with the pacing throughout and the story unfolded at just the right points. There was not any point in the movie that felt slow or dragged on unnecessarily. It was very well done and definitely worth the watch.
