*** This review may contain spoilers ***

GOODBYE is a splendidly made short film by Simon Aitken and Ashvin-Kumar Joshi and it displays great skill from such inexperienced film makers. It's about a man whose partner has died and he's having great difficulty letting go, though the need to do this is here since a new woman wants to become a part of his life. While at first it confused me to see the guy with his old love and talking to her, I quickly realized it was his imagination--he was imagining he was having this dialog with her. This was quite compelling and sad, though it also did not seem cloying or overly sentimental. In addition, some very simple but appropriate music accompanied the film and heightened the sense of turmoil and sadness. Overall a real class act.

By the way, one aspect of the film that was interesting was that the man and his first love were played by Indians living in London (you can clearly see them across from the Tower of London) but the fact they were ethnic Indians wasn't really important--they were just people. Nice job.
