A missed opportunity
30 August 2017
An ordinary web designer suffers a great tragedy when his love disappears suddenly and without any trace. Although very affected, he decides to start searching for her, even though clues are seldom, to say the least. What he's about to find, on the other hand, will make him question everything, while the connections he makes are much deeper and frightening that he could have ever imagined.

It's a movie which tries to present a deep mystery about a woman who disappears out of nowhere and her lover who's determined to do whatever it takes to find out what happened to her. Although very promising in terms of ideas, the implementation it choppy, and this is to not make it sound bad. The plot alternates from past to present multiple times in an attempt to convince the audience of the strong relationship the two had before the incident, but unfortunately it's not very credible. And it doesn't stop here. It tells a series of events which are quite incoherent and leave a lot of questions unanswered. To make matters worse, the finale is very inconclusive, leaving the viewer to imagine what he wants, instead of trying to end the story, let alone explaining what actually happened. While the actors were trying to play their characters as good as they could, the dialog didn't help them, being very simplistic and sometimes even irritating, tending to repeat the obvious, over and over again.

Unfortunately, we are facing a below average movie, which had a very interesting premise, but decided to keep the main information for itself, introducing characters out of nowhere without even bothering to tell something about them and concluding the entire plot in a very unsatisfying way. It's almost like they ran out of inspiration
