Touches on the AIDS pandemic of the 1990s in a more personal way than we are used to seeing; albeit brief. The twist at the end was so obvious that I felt silly for being surprised. But it was still well-played and seemlessly done. I will say that I was left depressed at the end. It is true that we humans often feel that life seems to drag on - day after day and hour after hour.
