Elise played by Samantha Davis Is a somewhat aimless twenty something failed film student coping with a break up and decides to visit her hometown.
What follows are awkward encounters with old flames, catch up with old friends questionable decisions and the existential angst that exists in your early twenties when it feels like you're no longer a child not an adult and everyone else has already made it to the finish line. It seems like everyone comes in contact with has a clear goal in mind and somewhere to go.
Elises biggest achievement in comparison is awkardly resigning from her job over the phone in an excruciatingly awkward and hilarious scene.
Director Joshua Labure keeps the cameras at a distance and the shot compositions wide allowing the characters to walk around interact discover and deflect.
The interactions between the characters feels very natural and the sound design captures the inner push pull mechanism of Elises mind who cant make her move but cant sit still either.
In the end Elise learns our protagonist learns theres a comfort in the familiar but home is not always where the heart is the traveller has not yet reached her destination and life moves forward even if you dont want it too.
As late musician Johnny Thunders put it best "You cant put your arms around a memory"
