Something Different

So, this was filmed in 2020 , during the pandemic, and basically has one actress onscreen for the majority of the film, probably due to lockdown restrictions. Considering that, I thought it was pretty good.

It shows an hour in the life of a grieving woman who suddenly has to deal with news that there is a crisis at her son's school while she is out jogging in the forest.

This was filmed near North Bay and I"m pretty sure I used to walk those trails when I was a student at Nipissing U. I live about 4 hours north of that location and always hike the nature trails here, so I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful scenery in a movie like this. The actress must have been wearing some heavy duty bug spray to brave the woods for so long, lol.

The mom made some very stupid decisions...she should have just jogged home when she got the news, but had she done that, there wouldn't have been a movie. I think she should have fallen and hit her head BEFORE she got the news to make her stupid decision seem more believable, lol.

Anyway, I enjoyed it but it really could have been a lot shorter.
