Protagonist struggles with uncertainty

The character Danny Carlton appears young and gym-built but lacks confidence. His shallow gaze and hesitant speech suggest he is not ready for responsibility. Everyone around him knows he is going nowhere except himself.

Course fails to help him

Danny attends a life-coaching course hoping it will change his life. His mentor and peers see his lack of progress clearly. The film explores the pressures placed on men living heavily online.

Actor delivers strong performance

Liam Harkins plays the role with spiraling panic and contrived machismo. Critics describe the acting as superb and the character study as remarkable. The debut work is noted as quietly assured and impressive.
