I WANT MORE!
As the first review, I wanted to keep things simple. Based on the description, you can gather your own idea of what the story will be about. Though this was only 13 minutes long, I do feel the story should have been much longer. I have gone through 4 out of the 5 '5 Lessons in Happiness' episodes and this is the first one where I genuinely feel this would do EXCEPTIONALLY WELL AS A STAND-ALONE SERIES. Picture this:"A woman falling out of favor with her family. At a young age, she is kicked out of her home abandoned not only by those closets to her, but her lover. After the death of her father, she returns home- initially to prove she's done well in life making it on her own, but ultimately to claim the one person she regrets leaving behind."
I mean, if that's not a 12 to 16 episode series, I don't know what is. It's a drama waiting to happen! It should be filled with heart-ache and pain, fueled by amazing backstories eventually leading to what seems to be the means to being comfortable in one's skin. I GENUINELY WANT MORE FROM THIS- from one writer to another, DON'T LET THIS ONE DOWN.
