    A well knit plot despite the multi-layer complexity of characters, which, I must add, were not only constructed and conceived really well, they were embodied to perfection by the cast. The film, through its 40ish minute run, counting in the interview and Q&A as well, as by end of the main segment, even if not intended so, it emerged inalienable by allowing the characters to appear liberated from the escalated tension when the latent conflict in the first and large parts of the second segment with seamless back and forth between real life interactions and the play's dialogue finally culminate into brief impassioned exchanges between the main characters, to bring to the fore the subconscious/underlying emotions. This also facilitated the anxious tone of Lydia's character, and her decreasingly justifiable behavior to unravel her repressed, unexpressed side as evocative of sympathy for both directly apparent struggles as well as indirect yet conceivable mutual conflicts or perceived/underwent injustice, that redeem her character from what could otherwise have easily fallen into typified, prejudiced tropes of female characters with pathological flaws - this to me is truly remarkable and along with all the other accomplishments, soars as definitive, as a metaphorical resolution to a quip on empowerment earlier on. Thanks a lot for sharing your creative work, it was not only a great, memorable watch, it also serves as food for thought, from what it conveys as much as from what it beautifully refrains from conveying.
