Plight

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!

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.

Me and my husband stumbled upon this movie on Amazon Prime as it one of the films that was tagged as "New". This has to be one of the best finds that we have had the pleasure of discovering. We admittedly got ahead of ourselves before we realized that we had to take our foot off the gas and allow the layers of the story to be peeled back in its own time. Just when we thought we knew how this film was going to go, BAM, there were these twists and turns that took us by surprise and were nowhere near the plot that we had mapped out in our heads. It was so well thought out and such a great indie film. You can tell everyone involved really took their time with this one.

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.

We watched the film after its release on Amazon prime after hearing about it from a friend and we were on the edge of our seats throughout the movie. It has a captivating story line with plenty of thought provoking and underlying social commentary. Clever undertow of current issues including healthcare and weapons, very relevant in these times. Although we have not seen the actors in other films, the cast was well chosen and the acting was excellent. I would highly recommend the film to anyone looking for a thrilling watch. We are looking forward to seeing other films from the talented director.
