The film maps a competitive driver’s journey after a traumatising accident that leaves her at her lowest. We meet Melissa in a state of inactivity on her bed, barely engaging with those around her. Despite the well-intentioned and sincere efforts of her loved ones, she is unable to shake off the all-consuming and overwhelming shroud of gloom.
The ensuing narrative, in the process, becomes an exploration of what it feels be rattled, but not broken, as Melissa declares, to eventually find herself again. While the trauma continues to creep up on her in the most unexpected ways, she is able to accept her heartbreak and the ravages it left in its wake. This articulation allows her to once again go back to the very source of all her pain, where it all began, and then move ahead on the path of healing.
Though not entirely seamless in its narratorial progression, the film is an earnest endeavor in painting this spectrum of emotions. The end result exhibits potential in terms of storytelling and intimacy of voice, one that should definitely be explored and engaged with in more projects.
