    Thought provoking

    A very well made film, although only 15 minutes long you can see the trouble they went through to get it just right, from the locations shot at you can appreciate the trouble that the Directors went through. Each scene has been crafted well to bring the story across to the viewer, as it goes into the next chapter. Would definitely have to view this again to fully appreciate the full story and the connections of the characters involved. This is Tom and James second recent outing, there first being "Secrets Of The Content" another worthy piece of film making which must be seen as well. Both Directors Tom and James deserve the praise for the this film, and for all the hard work and effort that went into making the film, can only be a matter of time before they go onto greater things.
