My overall impression

Wow! From the writing to the acting, Saving Cain is a powerhouse of talent. Aaron Kozak’s exploration of the subject matter is both deep and extremely pointed. Even as it branches out he manages to keep it succinct and timely. He tells a dramatic story with such levity and familiarity that it goes down smoothly while still being impactful. With Leah Verrill and Lenny Hernandez the emotion is so close to the surface it’s palpable. They’re able to convey complicated character development with ease. Saving Cain is definitely a can’t miss!
