The wonderfully understated premise of the film is simply a conversation that is so enrapturing that it transports you to a different realm... even if pretty inconveniently. Now, if you are somebody who is plagued by the anxiety of always hovering over the stove once you have something boiling over it, please check yourself at the door. Expect no such apprehensions from our chatty protagonist Will. When he gets a phone call at the start of cooking rice, a conversation ensues. It encompasses life updates, catching up, views on podcasts, as well as gossip about who’s hooking up with whom. <br><br>

Alongside the information exchange, however, the phone call takes Will on some very circuitous path, quite literally, eventually leading him to a circumstance far from comforting. <br><br>

The entirety of the plot is a quiet movement toward the moment when the film offers its final flourish. It's defined by a mellowness throughout, in company with controlled humor that ensures each punch lands. All of these elements are coupled with a notable performance, essentially a single actor adroitly shouldering the narrative throughout. Lastly, the moment the short engages with is not only portrayed adequately but also stays with the viewer in an entertaining, effervescent manner.
