Status Pending (2018)

Status Pending: Directed by Ben Zolno. With Ivana Palezevic, Ben Zolno, Harriet Prebble, Andrew Galt. After six months with her Tinder guy, an indecisive millennial must overcome the high life expectations she’s built from social media to decide today: either take a last-minute voyage, or settle down into a career and relationship with him.

“Ben Zolno writes, directs and stars in this wonderful romantic drama, and he does an outstanding job bringing this story to the screen. What starts out as the story unfolds is a tale of two lovers who come to a crossroad in their relationship. Do they go and become a more serious couple, build a life together, or do they take a break to take in all the world can give us? These are questions that even the oldest of us still ask ourselves sometimes. His minimalistic use of extras or additional sets truly makes the film unique in this category. You literally spend the 85 minutes with this couple through the ups and the downs, through the good and the bad, as they try to sort out their lives. What ensues is comedic, romantic tear-jerking and heart-warming. The lead actress Ivana does a great job, her performance is also very believable. Itu0026#39;s a shame this film did not get more attention for this is the type of film that should be shown to the mainstream audiences instead of the garbage we see on a regular basis. My hats of to Ben for giving us this gem.”
