It's so rare to be impressed, truly impressed, by an indie comedy show. But Relations*** impresses in a hell of a lot of ways.
The writing is sharp and laugh out loud funny, made even better by a phenomenal cast and well thought, punchy editing. The heart is there too. Sometimes painfully so. These characters screw up and they're flawed, but they're desperately trying to be happy and you find yourself engaged by them the whole way through.
What surprised me most of all about Relations*** is how cinematic it is. Shots are way more beautiful than they have any right to be, especially on what's presumably a low budget and a tight schedule. Writer/Director Ivy Jelisavac is a talent to watch, to be sure.
With 8 episodes of only 10-12 minutes each, Relations*** should be a no-hesitation commitment. I watched the whole thing in one sitting and I can't wait to watch it again.
