    Great setting, nice camerawork, good sound, great performances. Told simply with little dialog. The determination shows.

    Lampu

    I really liked the way the camera worked in this short film. For some reason her voice really caught my attention. Her words went deep in my head. I also liked the way you guys worked with the light. Especially in the end, when she blew out the candle.
