This is a character drama that focuses on the relationship between an older woman and a young man. Set in Hawaii, it follows a woman that is afraid to make hard choices and is content to drift through life. It is a refreshingly blunt take on subject matter avoids the common tropes in this genre. The movie features great dialog. The characters have relatable conversations and the tension in the scenes feels organic as it reaches its crescendo. The character development is also well done. Each character stands out and their motivations are clear and nothing in the film feels forced or contrived. Definitely a must watch.

This feature film is uniquely appealing with a talented cast and scenes set throughout the beautiful Hilo, Hawaii area. Great supporting cast and dialog that repeatedly draws you into the lead female's dilemma. Will she or won't she. Will she finally make an adult commitment ?The sets look like they are all local businesses, parks and schools, nary a sound stage in sight, so it provides a real Hawaiian authenticity. I truly loved this film (seen it twice ), and applaud the Hawaii-based crew, cast, producers and director/screenwriter, for making a film that will appeal to all viewers. Well done!
