Makes you realize the importance of making good life choices as these downstream effects are sobering to say the least. The film takes the mundane life of a few small town people and extracts their flaws and brewing emotions. The story follows a divorced woman and her daughter with her mentally troubled ex-husband working his way back into the picture, along with both of their current relationship partners. Additionally, there is a high school boy who works at the restaurant the wife with daughter works as the boy is also awkwardly getting involved with a unique female classmate. This story is a slice of life that contrasts paralleled happiness and sadness within a small-scoped world as it zeroes in on character's relationships. Meaning the film's biggest impact is the acting that evokes the spectrum of emotions through small to large moments. It has an independent and raw feel. The coldness of the winter season is truly felt....especially when the sorrow takes center stage. Looking for pure and subtle acting, take a peek at this film.
