“Brilliantly cinematic moment of seeing actress through actor’s smoke, and whole film beautifully shot. Impressive to see such use of unusual locations, and cannot have been easy to find, light and work in them – definitely added to interest and narrative. Convincing use of guns too!”
“Moody and stylish.”
“A very good film, short story very well told with a nice twist at the end. Great performances by all the cast, loved the baddies accent. Great cinematics, great locations, great film.”
