    a much-needed topic

    A much-needed topic to address and many thanks to the writers for crafting this film

    DELICIOUS

    -The movie was a refreshing experience having a smaller cast and minor locations. It was unlike the typical Nollywood movies

    -The dark family house played well into the movie's atmosphere. You were almost begging for light, but based on the circumstances, it was understandable

    -This was a needed narrative to raise awareness on postpartum depression which is extremely overlooked in our societies

    -Gabriel Afolayan, Meg Otanwa, and Tina Mba delivered!πŸ˜€

    -A great score that manipulated the mood of the story so we could live each moment with the actors

    BLAND

    -The screenplay could have been given us more insights into Derin's family background, upbringing, the whereabouts of her aunties, or even her circle of friends

    -The cinematographer omitted to capture some crucial close-up moments

    -As the film was very intense, a little break could have been inserted by including a few relaxed scenes or a parallel narrative.
