So many of the permutations of love explored: mother & child, mother/daughter, daughter/father, man & woman, woman & woman. Kayla Radomski's dance choreography and execution of that choreography is technically expert and emotionally resonant. Cale Ferrin gives a remarkable performance as Freddie as he overcomes the resistance of these two alienated and injured women and brings them all together as a family. The climax of the film is a tad too melodramatic and overacted. Some scenes seem off tonally and several subplots distract from the central storyline. On repeated viewings these problems become more apparent.
