The world of the film opens in shadows where a new mother battles sleepless nights, endless chores, and the many demands of a baby who depends entirely on her for their existence. The repetition, mundaneness, and the circular reality that life becomes while raising a newborn form the backbone of the narratorial progression. It further presents a much-needed glimpse into motherhood, often glossed over with upbeatness and a sense of perpetual and irrevocable joy, an approach that diminishes the true sacrifices parenthood entails.<br><br>

The edge, the isolation, demands, and pressures of motherhood are capable of pushing a woman to, is portrayed for the viewer with an economy of dialogue and a minimalism intrinsic to the screenplay. Consequently, the film’s shadowy monochromatic realm employed to pronounce this isolation, and the lack of colour in the protagonist’s life, becomes a fitting storytelling device. <br><br>
Shot entirely on a smartphone and stripped to its bare bones, minus any bells and whistles, it is simply the power of storytelling and performances that drive the film forward. Its single-member crew, bolstered by skilled actors, ensures that all of these ideas are portrayed in an unmissable manner.
