A fixed frame takes us into the life of a boy who converses with a friend we don't see on screen. The exchange begins with mundane things like school crushes, imminent tests and assignments, and so on. However, gradually the tone acquires a gravity that begins to give way to darker developments - divorce, separation, anger, and lastly, violence.
The narrative's journey through each of these points is smooth. The young team exhibits deep potential and dedication towards storytelling. Perhaps a gradual, longer project would have allowed a more organic development of events, because some points get lost in the pacing of the narrative. However, the film still succeeds in weaving a notable plot within its limited space, before finally presenting it to the viewer.
