This short is beautifully shot and filled with unexpected details that unfold casually and believably. The performances are just great. The casting a wonderful group of great looking talent. Nice cinematography of Ireland, too. It has all these little side details that eventually sort of add up. But it also requires filling in all kinds of assumed details. It's not incomplete. It does give you everything you need to know to make it a great character study. It refuses to telegraph much which really lets the viewer get involved. The whole metaphor of sheep and birthing and family is quite clever.
A perfect gem of a short story. It was a highly pleasurable surprise to find this at the Boston Independent Film Festival.
