No need to waste time endlessly browsing—here's the entire lineup of new movies and TV shows streaming on Netflix this month.
A well crafted film, tells the story of a reformed ship captain and his daughter, who's having a hard financial life, facing an ethical choice in a desperate attempt to provide a better life for his daughter.
The film is clearly created with a lot of heart and I can tell that almost every shot was carefully studied and this is what leads me to see The Shipment more as a piece of visual art rather than a typical short film as it clearly emphasize on painting some amazing CGI sceneries.
Although I wanted to know more about some characters such as the mother and the plot idea feels a bit limited yet it's safe to say that the screenplay was competently written to focus mainly on the humane message and while being aided with some good acting and decent directing skills, you can fairly say that The Shipment is a dazzling visual experience rendered with a lot of heart.
