i go to ucsb and take some class with the executive producer and alison anders . she a superb teacher and director so anything she put her name on and i think must be pretty good . this film a a selection at the santa barbara film festival seem like a good choice . while this movie include some nice shot and cinematography and the lack of story and coherence really take away from anything the it be attempt to accomplish . my main problem be that this be someone first film and you could obviously tell . bad acting and an even bad screenplay stop this film from get off the ground . the soundtrack have some nice music that give a sense of the main character struggle to cope with the sadness that lead to his leave and now return the place he grow up . i just have to say that despite some of the good craft of the film and it lack of story and performance really prevent it from be some good .
