This is a story about obsession and madness which Prano Bailey-Bond executes very well, and Niamh Algar portrays Enid perfectly. My only issue is with the ending, which was too static (for lack of a better word).

Decent. Not where I thought it was going, but not in a bad way.

Curious film. Visually it’s a cinematic treat— from the colour correction, the negative space, the framing; it’s a dark movie that uses it productively and effectively. Story wise it’s a bit of mixed bag. On one hand it plays with some very interesting ideas and the most interesting idea of censorship— it often feels as if there’s not enough presented. It really emulates a feeling of the film itself being a manifestation of being censored and stripped of connecting pieces. At first it seems as if there’s something very half baked, but slowly there’s a breaking down between audience and viewer that leads to a very captivating realization. It has its flaws but is definitely worth a watch.

Ending fell a little flat for me, but the first hour is great.
