I saw this film when it was exhibited at the same festival as one of mine, and I must say I was blown away by the cinematography on this very moving and heart-warming piece. Simon Dennis expertly captures the environment around his characters and the supple warm imagery compliments the heart-warming narrative perfectly. The tale itself is very moving, portraying the intimate bond between a father and daughter united through the agony of loss. The performances, particularly by the young Natasha Watson cannot be faulted, with both actors evidently having put great effort into understanding the motives and concerns of their characters. Credit must also go to Dennis (or whoever was responsible) for achieving such an impressive level of performance from such a young actress. Overall this piece is a beautiful example of what can be achieved within a short film, both visually and through the progression of narrative. I would definitely recommend viewers experience it for themselves in order to see the elegance of this piece first hand.
