Review Time: this project is excellent.

Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, background music, mental imagery, time jumps and place jumps.

Storyline: now what I am going to say about this storyline is going to be controversial, so I am expecting some of what I am going to be saying to irritate someone out there in Internet land, but that is the world we are living in now.

Now I understand that in today's world that you cannot touch someone in any way shape or form without some kind of controversy and yes before I receive any form of feedback I understand it and stand by it on some certain levels, but without giving too much away take this whole current situation in our population right now and times it by about 700% of not being able to touch someone and you get something like this futuristic world that this film is set in.

Character developments/Performances: the character developments are excellently designed to show what happens when any individual is prohibited not to express themselves in any way shape or form. I could identify with these characters easily, because of my mental health/even without my mental health illness I'm guessing here but without my illness I would still have connection issues because of a lack of confidence.

But if you have ever wondered what happens when you don't have any kind of physical or emotional or spiritual contact for a long time, this film will show you it may even get those people that use those rubbish lines of "Sex isn't everything" to maybe think about if or when they should be using them or if they should stop saying them all together and the performances are between good to very good, there is very good chemistry between our lead pair.

This film receives: 8/10, I had two marks in mind I went for this one, because yes as I have already said I understand it and will stand by it as it relates to physical contact on some levels. But this film highlights what a potential slippery slope we could find ourselves on, if we are not sensible and taking 100% of our connection on any level away from us is not an ideal solution, briefly the ending of this project.
