I found this short film compelling, despite it being a low budget production. In fact, the film maker makes very good use of the resources at his disposal, so much so that you are left wondering what he could have done had he had a bigger budget to work with. It is gripping almost immediately and I found myself invested in the characters from the start, which I imagine in a short film is no mean feat to achieve. In some ways it reminded me a little bit of Harold Pinter's 'The Homecoming' (i.e themes of a returning son and strong, unresolved grievances towards the father). The production seemed very professional and it is clear that a lot of thought went into this. Overall I thought this was a great effort. Definitely recommend.
