Featured Review
"At each step, Morgan shows his understanding of the subject he is dealing with. Jamie’s characterization feels more real than dramatised, and the stylistic devices the film does employ functions as and adds to the cinematic translation of a situation that is more invisible than not. The conclusion is hopeful, but is barely a second long. Anxiety does not allow sustained relief. "
