The acting and writing are just not up to scratch.

The(ir) Blurb...

Louise has lived her whole life in self-denial. An ordinary-seeming day takes an unexpected turn when she meets Anna, who she went to school with as a young girl. Going down memory lane, and the symbolic appearance of two girls, brings up hidden emotions, insight and the thought that it's never too late to embrace your butterflies.
