They should have made this a 2 hour film

Short films have no time to provide a back story, to do more than touch briefly on the life of their participants. Within that constraint, some short films don't try and pull together all the threads, answer all the questions.

This is such a film. In just a few short minutes we find out so much about Anis; at the same time, many questions are posed. To tie everything together, to explore the situation to its fullest would take an entire full length feature - maybe a mini-series on TV.

Instead just one thread is explored. It is beautifully filmed, acted sensitively, and leaves you wanting to know what happens next, how things turn out.

That's probably why I gave this film less than a top class rating. It isn't dissatisfaction with the film, more a disappointment that it ended, that I have been left with so many questions.

As with the very best short films, this one I shall remember. And not just because of the beautiful neighbour.
