CGiii Comment

Selbak's debut - her follow-up was to be 7 years later.

There is no mystery as to why - okay, this is lower than low budget - and, it shows.

If a director can get good performances out of their actors...then, they have won half the battle - Selbak doesn't win this battle.

Low-budget does not necessarily mean no talent - or does it?
