An outstanding film. An actors' showcase...both leads excel in an intense, understated drama of people with terrible secrets they are trying to forget. But there is no forgetting...there is the reality of remembering and somehow continuing on.
Beautifully acted and directed, with a fine sensitivity to the importance of letting the story breathe...moving around the oil rig, touching the supporting players just enough to let the main thread set in our minds...then returning for more revelations.
This is what I hope for when I pick up a small film. This is a jewel. I won't forget this one...ever.
