    Omg. This is so well built. The story almost takes you by surprise and then you just ride the wave of emotion to the hopeful ending. This is about love and great loss and moving closer to more love.

    A very powerful 10 minutes. Many moments of exceptional dialogue. Generous room for actors.

    Short but sweet and extremely powerful. I feel the relationship between the two and what theyve gone through even though its never explicitly stated.
