I really enjoyed this film. Danny Abeckaser was absolutely incredible as well as the rest of the cast. A very believable group of actors. It's clear that this was a project of passion for everyone involved. You feel it in every moment of the film. I can't wait to see what comes next from Writer/Actor, Jon Carlo. This was just awesome.
