    “I fear he doesn't. And I fear that's where it's all gone wrong.”

    this is not a perfect film, but i really get a lot out of it. every performance in this film is exemplary.

    “i could weep…but i wept already. i wept already today.”

    really quite like this lady, i think she’s neat.

    The Red Sea Makes Me Wanna Cry

    ★★★

    this is a delicate and aesthetically beautiful short that tells a nice story whilst doing very little.

    verging on style over substance, but i believe it works in its favour. the lack of information we are given conveys the isolation and frustration the main character internalises in this film.

    everything looks nice however you’re unable to fully appreciate it in your search for the who, what, where and why’s. this film takes advantage of the short film format and treats it as a narrative tool rather than a crutch or restriction.
