Overview

ThrillerMystery

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Insight

The 74-minute runtime isn't just budget constraints — it's deliberate disorientation, denying viewers the relief of a traditional three-act structure.

Cultural

Made for approximately $200K, this is a case study in how female directors of the 2010s used the 'unreliable woman' trope to interrogate who gets to define reality.
