Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Its amazing to see that a short film can pack such a powerful punch. The interaction between the two actors is really what takes this simple story to the next level. The young girl (Milya Corbeil-Gaubreau) ) is a natural talent, visibly at ease in front of the cameras. The dad (Alain Houle) portrays a complex set of emotions, from light and happy at first to torn and sad as the story unfolds. Its surprising to see such a convincing display: he really conveys how his mood is transformed within a short span of time. Very moving.I'm not usually a fan of shorts but this one made a believer out of me.Won best international fiction at Sundance. Both the director (Genevieve Dulude-Decelles) and the actors show immense talent.

The story of this French-Canadian short film (part of the 2014 Sundance Shorts program) could not be simpler: a young girl is spending time with her Dad and positively bubbling over the prospect of enjoying a special evening with him, when an alternative unexpectedly presents itself. What was a simple situation a moment ago is now a complex one, and the mood changes instantly. The young actress playing Fanny, Milya Corbeil-Gaubreau, makes her debut here and is a gifted natural. The directorial style might strike some viewers as slow, but with actors this good, you want to linger. The director, Genevieve Dulude-Decelles, is a talent to watch.
