Micro-budget head scratcher that end with questions
Very impressed with what they've done here (I'm ignoring the fact that it has, I'm guessing, no budget whatsoever), and not just because it was shot during the pandemic with zero crew (I've done nothing all year so a star awarded just for that!). But this is a very clever, possibly too clever for me, idea that has been brilliantly put together. Reading the critics reviews, this is part of a bigger world, which is good because the ending is ambiguous to say the least. You come out of it feeling like you've really been through everything that actress Tori Butler-Hart has. I can't remember a film recently that has left me feeling so like I've been through a real experience like that. It might be a bit much for some, and as it's so much like the feelings of isolation and fear that we're al living through at the moment I can see why this absolutely won't be for some. I think if you're interested in filmmaking then this is one to watch, if you're wanting a big budget sci-fi extravaganza go and watch Tenet (although the sound is much better in this, I can actually hear the few lines spoken in Infinitum). Sir Ian McKellen and Conleth Hill provide some much needed exposition, which is really all they are there for, not that I'm complaining, but this is Tori Butler-Hart's film who is in almost every frame of the film. Not an easy task for anyone let alone someone so young.
