    I guess everyone who worked on the movie reviewed it !

    That's the only logical explanation for the exaggerated rating of this "movie''. The movie tries to be all metaphysical and mysterious but it ends up being long and boring.

    I had a hard time finishing it.

    The acting is mediocre. The 2 main actors are like High school level actors. The dialogue is laughable and so poorly delivered that it made me uncomfortable. Seriously, don't waste your time watching this one, may as well re-watch one of your favourite movies than this snooze fest. Clearly one of the hardest movie I've suffered through. I know all I've written is the opposite of the other 14 reviews but, Hey...I didn't work on this movie.

    prepare to watch it multiple times!

    Alright look, I'm not a movie person by any means, but i actually I really enjoyed this film. It offers real and raw perspectives on mental health and human connection that you don't really get to see too often. I was fully prepared for the camerawork, coloring, sound, acting, etc to be messy since it's an indie film but WOW? It felt so immersive and professionally well-done for such a small project!

    Im not gonna lie, it took a minute to get me hooked as the first act felt a bit slow to me, but I found myself coming up with so many questions as the film went on and to be completely honest, I probably need to watch it a few more times to get some/any of them answered, there's def a mystery to be solved here.

    Thought Provoking and Unique

    This film had me thinking for days after. Really incredible and interesting cinematography and plot. You can tell there is so much passion, care, and detail devoted so every aspect of the movie.

    There's a lot more than meets the eye behind this film. Upon taking a closer look you will see the efforts they went to in working with limited variates in sets. The main apartment itself was utilized in interesting ways to prevent it from feeling visually stale.

    Also, the scene of Naomi drowning in water in her reoccurring dreams seemed like it could have easily been taken out of a multi million dollar feature.

    Overall, this film is worth your time and attention.

    A tantalizing plot with a stellar performance by the lead actress!

    At first, I wasn't really sure where the story was going. Shots and scenes felt jarring an disconnected. But it quickly becomes obvious that was by design. As the narrative picked up steam, I became fully immersed in the cinematic language the director and cinematographer had developed.

    Naomi Prentice delivers an enthralling performance as our lead. It is an incredibly difficult challenge for an actor to keep an audience engaged with a seemingly emotionless character. And yet, there is an element to this performance that is deeply emotional.

    If you want to watch something that will surprise you, definitely check this one out.

    Slow burn for an exciting payback!

    Story was a slow progression into madness, plenty of tension and feelings of frustration shared with the main character. Following her through multiple worlds, it's the first movie in a long time I truly didn't know where it was leading!

    The ending was a huge payoff! I think I'm going to have to watch this a couple more times to catch all the subtle details the director and DP sprinkled throughout in order to clue you in. There's definitely a really well curated visual story here, and I loved it!

    The lead actor's were really great at creating the atmosphere of familiarity and at the same time distance. It's one of those movies you can't just watch once to really appreciate it. Nice work to everyone involved, a beautiful piece of art!
