O Mistério da Rodovia River

So let me start by saying that the overall story here is good. Without giving anything away, there's 2 stories happening, which you'll see at the end if you get through it.

The execution is really bad though. If you can get through the level of acting without switching it off, you should be able to finish it, because it's only about 75 minutes long, and even at 75 minutes long, there is a long of extraneous stuff, and I am wondering if this was one of those movies where it really wasn't long enough to be a feature, but they extended some scenes to make it into one. The plot they have is large enough where they shouldn't have had to do that, but it's low budget...maybe they had trouble getting additional locations, etc.
