I rarely watch dramas. This was an occasion that I did. It's engaging and keeps you watching till the end. Somewhat sad but very real although I don't think the husband was a very good person. He hooks up with someone else and never kept in contact with his wife while she was in hospital. So it's sad that she wants to be with her daughter but is prevented from doing so by this man who is less than a man.

Good film. Well written. At just over an hour, it's an easy watch too. Beautifully filmed, too.

Works as a short movie, at such low bar even I can write a movie script
The storyline was good but the scenario was less than ok and can fit only in a short movie, it's inadequate to an 84 minutes long movie.
Dan and Therese acting was average, unlike Dara she did great.
