I had seen this feature film as a submission to the Big House Los Angeles Entertainment Festival in 2015, I was one of many reviewers for the festival, and after seeing the trailer I knew I had to watch the feature length version, the other reviewers for the festival all agreed that this film was fantastic, Cinematically it was beautiful, the acting was great, the story was outstanding, and it was chosen as an official selection for the festival, after it's screening at the festival at Lalive regal Cinemas the audience wanted more, festival attendee's whom had heard about the film requested an encore screening, and it was granted another screening on a Friday night to a packed theater again, and later on the final night of the film festival through audience participation votes Imperfect Sky was chosen as the Best Picture for it's category. since then it has gone on to win many awards at other festivals.

I love movies, all types from special effects silly blockbusters to documentaries. Rarely however does the viewer get the complete experience of a story so well written and executed in both acting and directing, that it leaves them with an impact of significance.

Imperfect Sky is a movie that should be watched, not only for lessons of life but but for those who appreciate living. A story that some may be able to closely relate, and for others a sympathetic and caring heartache. For people in the real world where stories like this are all too common it might serve as a mirror and life preserver.

The lead actor playing Skyler is named Blake Scott Lewis and he is so captivating I dare you to not ask "Who is this guy?" Incredible would be an understatement. A tight, but nicely rounded out cast make this more than a single dimensional character study.

Some movies leave us wanting more, and Inperfect Sky leaves the viewer wanting nothing other than self-contemplation and examination of human fragility. It is an exceptional movie that hopefully will get the traction it deserves and the type of movie that might just save a life in the process.
