One of the things I enjoy about good writing is the ability to surprise and to be creative. If a script is 20 minutes long and in the final two minutes we aren't let in to the result, it cheapens things. One would say that the unknown is more powerful than any reality that could be shown. Sorry, it just means the writers aren't competent to come up with a classy ending.

First, it could have been...better. But I've seen far worse shorts. Like many shorts, for me at least, it left too much speculation at the end. I like more tidy resolutions. The acting was good, much better from some characters than others. The story had a lot of potential that could have been developed with another minute or two of film or by replacing something in the middle. I watched it because of the description, which was accurate, but a little...misleading is wrong....perhaps a little incomplete. Still, by two minutes in I was hooked. As an investment of a few minutes of my day, I'm glad I watched. I struggled briefly with giving it a 7/10 rating, but could not. 6/10 seems a bit low. Worth watching.
