The film opens with a quote that establishes the horizon of expectation for the viewer - the constant effort that is needed to nurture and harbor love, to ensure its flame never dims. The narrative breaks itself into three courses of a dinner, but the stages come to stand less for the food itself, and more for the progress of a very crucial conversation that has the power to determine the fate of the relationship we are presented with.
As the story progresses, the writing, alongside noteworthy performances and the chemistry of the actors, presents a thoughtful exploration of the myriad nuances and complexities that make a relationship. With the passage of time, and the many overwhelming challenges it ushers in, a relationship can morph into something truly alienating and isolating.
The film, thus, becomes a story of two people finding their way back to companionship, away from this isolation. The screenplay and narratorial progression ensure that all of these various parts are allowed a sincere engagement and portrayal all along.
