-Kyle Bain, Bain’s Film Reviews


”Darcine's Day is a very powerful and well done short that takes the viewer along in a day in the life of a struggling young woman… riveting to watch… right up to the very shocking and sad ending.  This film was beautifully filmed. This great cinematography made the visual story just as interesting as the actual story, (and) the main reason the film worked so well was the excellent performance that was delivered by the actress portraying Darcine.”
- “Judge 3” @ Cleveland Film Festival

“It's easy to feel emotionally connected to this piece …guaranteed to make the audience's heart ache for Darcine.”
”The cinematography was particularly strong, making the viewer feel cramped within the confines of Darcine's (world)”
- “Judge D-34” @ Dances With Films

“If … Darcine’s Day is a proof of concept for a major film, the filmmakers have made a successful and convincing argument for something much bigger….we are left …clamoring to know what happens next with Darcine…”.
