Our take

Capturing the breakdown of a lifelong female friendship, Dan Sallitt’s intimate drama employs an elliptical structure that accentuates the inevitability of time and life changes. The sharply realized script seizes the kind of quiet heartache that comes with growing resentment and misunderstandings.
