Alex works for a dangerous cartel; Sam is a nurse. Their lives are different but equally empty and troubled. One day, a TV becomes a window that directly connects one with the other. (Sitges Film Festival)

The inspiration from Nolan-esque themes stinks to high heaven, but on the other hand the plot is altogether original. It is pleasing to see fresh acting faces who somehow follow template to do exactly what is needed. Don’t expect any acting or other exhibitionism here, Jamin Winans just "goes about his business" and I have the inescapable feeling that he is happy in his bubble and is completely clean of any external evaluations. If there's any film that fits well with the notions of the auteur and the idiosyncratic, it would be The Frame. The only thing that brings down the final (albeit still very good) impression is the obviously severe lack of funding for special effects. Stuff maybe 50 million more into it, and who knows how it would have turned out.

A mindfuck that’s stylish and narratively interesting enough to be decent fun for two hours. A lot of things are happening in the ending, but I can’t say that they satisfactorily worked out after watching it the first time. For now 7/10.
