Plot 411: A look at the complex friendship between a girl and a guy, unrequited feelings and the ever present question of "What if?"

Review: This was a weird little indie flick about a friendship between two people, Wes (Joey Kern) and Alison (Alexandra Holden). It's about their everyday lives as they go on adventures and the little moments that add up to a lifetime shared between friends. Alison is like a butterfly who flits to and fro without a care in the world. Wes is taken by Alison's free spirit and they quickly become friends. While most of their friendship is spent just as friends, there is a deep undercurrent that things can be more. The friendship is revealed one memory at a time by Wes as he and Alison reminisce one night before she flits out of his life again. This creates a non-linear dream-like way of seeing the couple's relationship. What is a little puzzling are these dream sequences that Wes has. It's almost like watching two separate films. Richard Roundtree plays a god-like figure, an all-knowing being that is trying to help Wes see the truth at the heart of the matter. Despite the weird dreams, I enjoyed this movie because the main plot was simple and relatable to everyone. It's like a lesson to us all to take action before life slips away from us when we're not looking. Another thing I enjoyed was the score and how it was worked into the scenes. Some scenes are totally dialogue free with the music washing over several minutes of film and telling the story.

Watch It: If you want a little bit of romance with the quirkiness of an indie.

Skip It: If you want all your questions answered when the credits roll.
