Institute History

Description

An intriguing existential story by John Allen about a man and woman who never meet but are on a collision course with fate and each other. Fortunately, there are no casualties. Interesting and sophisticated, Anna Spilt the Oil displays fine use of camera, editing, and sound to build tension, suspense, and fun.
