The narrative of the film is short, concise, and above all, unforgettably powerful. It starts off at a harmless note of a young woman making a recipe video for perhaps a video blog. However, the actual concern she is trying to draw her viewers' attention to immediately shocks you.
It further serves as a jarring reminder of how the most atrocious, cruel acts hide in plane sight, maybe in the house of a seemingly average couple. The film also highlights the disturbing reality of the increase in cases of domestic violence and abuse that several women are being subjected to as a result of the coronavirus lockdown. All in all, the film puts forth its message in a simple, yet intelligent manner which is precisely what makes it deeply impactful.
