When it comes to storytelling, especially with the aid of a medium like a short film, it helps to focus on less than more. What it essentially means is that sometimes a sincere portrayal of a single moment, in the case of ‘Wing One's Way’ - a single conversation within the confines of the same room, is sufficient to make the story work.

The film achieves precisely this by taking us into a girl's dilemma who is mulling over coming out, and everything that would follow thereafter.  <br><br>There is something notably lovely and effortless about the two actors and their chemistry. This also marks the most pronounced aspect of the film - all the effort that has gone into making it look effortless and simple. The success of a story that is told devoid of any frills and bells, and with a consistent mellow approach to its many aspects, therefore becomes unmissable.
