A MASTERPIECE, AN ART. NAILEA DEVORA IS ETHEREAL IN THIS. SARAH BAHBAH, THE WOMAN THAT YOU ARE!!!

[lvt]

Sarah Bahbah y'all. The way you project layers of emotions and let an actor release them is incredible. You are at a level of film aesthete where it does not need to gratify visuals. Everytime I watch her films, they feel effortlessly put together. You have the people's Oscar.

The way Sarah Bahbah captures the essence of her muses are incredible, she brings the best version of them. This is a masterpiece.
