His Mother (2024) Hollyshorts


Mother races to stop her son from doing something terrible.

This is a moment in time following a mother's frantic drive to try and stop her son. We watch as she tries to reach him by phone and also speak to a doctor. It's a film fraught with emotion as we see how the act of one person effects those who love them.

While the film is very well done and captures the moment beautifully, the film is oddly satisfying. Blame the fact that we are genuinely only in a few frantic minutes. There is nothing on either end with the result being that we don't get a great deal of catharsis because we aren't as connected as we should be.

This is definitely worth seeing but it isn't fully satisfying.
