Verdict on Your Reality
Your Reality follows a marketing executive Alicia (Anders) who meets a charming stranger Mark (James) at a coffee shop. It leads to a blossoming romance where they move in together. However, what starts out like a dream relationship takes a turn when Alicia struggles to remember things and Mark tells her what she does wrong.
This short movie explores controlling and gaslighting relationships. It shows how things seem positive from one point of view, but a nagging feeling shows a much more sinister behavior occurring. The disturbing side of this movie comes from how easily Mark operates and how even the best of friends don’t know what happens behind closed doors.
This could easily be used a warning device to show early red flags and for friends to understand signs something isn’t right. It is a brave tale to tell and one so many people are too scared to talk about.
Final Thoughts – Your Reality is an important and disturbing warning about relationships.
