mini-review
This is contemporary relationship realism — polished on the surface, quietly anxious underneath. It explores how money, image, and desire intertwine in modern romance without tipping fully into cynicism. The emotional heat simmers rather than explodes. It’s observant rather than operatic, asking whether love survives when everything feels transactional.
A glass of wine, low lighting, and the mild discomfort of recognizing yourself onscreen.
