Original screenplay, great short film

Loved this little film. It was an original story, and very pertinent to what is happening in cities across America. Loved the soundtrack and the honest emotion of the film. I have heard that the actors were local and basically either new to acting or have had limited acting experience. This is amazing. I think this film was also shot on a very limited budget, so a lot of creativity was needed to pull of the scenes. This movie is popular in Austin, Texas, where is was filmed. I hope to see more from this director. I believe this was his first short film, if so it is a good indication of what is to come. Keep up the great work!
