This "low-budget" film -- the writer/director's first -- is such only in the monetary sense, as compared to hollywood spending. The story displays a strong narrative, driven by the characters, and twists enough to keep your interest, and yet doesn't try to be overly clever or shocking.
I am happy to see a first effort film that didn't take the "easy" route of a goofy comedy or something with shallow characters and traditional scenarios. This movie is about people -- two in particular, but also about the good and bad side in all of us, and the way we some times end up with friends and relationships we can't explain.
An excellent example of how to jump feet-first into filmmaking and land standing.
