PeaceAnarchy

Rated 16 May 2011

I never really know how to rate films this personal. It's certainly not bad; Some sincere emotion, nice use of imagery, and decent pacing for a short all make it interesting to watch. However, I can't relate, and the film doesn't really do a good job of making me relate, so there's a distance that keeps me from really appreciating it.
