What I liked

I kept going back and forth for a while wondering the characters motivations. There was just enough room to wonder.

What I didn't like

Spoilers maybe. I could see the female character envisioning her “holy” visons maybe it was a choice, but I felt she could have been more guarded (not surrendering to the daydream in front of another) until the very end. But solid performance, I am reaching far because you asked.

The male character, its a hard role, and I think there is room for the ramp up to be finer. Maybe starting a little “put on” chipper until he learns his transfer plan is getting blowback would feather the arc more. Solid performance of a hard role.

My overall impression

A tension piece and the characters kept me guessing.
