A great short film seems the fair definition. For shots of camera angles, for beautiful performances ofMatt Rolls and Laura Masters, for construction of story, the ambiguity being , for the significant part of film, the instrument to provoke the viewer to define his opinions.

The great virtue- fair exploration of a sensitive theme - domestic abuse against men , their motivation of non - reaction and the manner of wife to manipulate, dominate, craft the culpability and sustain the vulnerability of the other.

The presence in police car, the encouragement from cop , the tentative of suicide are the precious pieces defining, in precise terms, a drama so easy ignored or minimalised.
