Citazioni
Reuben: [looking at picture frame] My sister would still be alive if not for that... that throwback!

Versioni alternative
In 2017, an edited 24 minute version was released to qualify the film for submitting to North American film festivals with maximum running time of 25 minutes. This slightly shorter version omitted these 2 scenes from the original 27 minute release: the opening titles montage and - much to the chagrin of writer-director, Mark Anthony Ramitt - the aftermath of Sterling's accident in the parking garage (visually showcasing a spiritual aspect that enhances the fantasy element for Sterling's final embodiment).

Good effort

Rated PG-13 for adult themes.

A prostitute with a heart of gold spends a lot of thoughtful time with her client and develops a soft spot for the lonely wheelchair-bound nephew of her client who is treated coldly at his high school or community college.

Embodiment is a solid effort for a short film. Strong story idea. The acting was firmer than the direction.

However, the idea that a prostitute would have so much available time and mental energy to devote to a client is not exactly realistic, and the ending idea is overly grand and it falls flat as it is played out.

I give this 6 Stars out of ten.
