Review: A fascinating, visually lovely trailer for a short film that goes perhaps a bit too far and positioning the narrative thrust of the film. There are some moments towards the end that suggest something a bit more powerful, but the trailer doesn’t entirely sell that, being built around snippets of images in a rising tempo of action with a piano underscore that feels ill-fitting at times.
Oscar Prospects:
The film might not qualify for feature-length narrative awards, but it may be a major contender for Best Live-Action Short Film.
