“Vagueness does become a virtue in Matt Saunders’s set, in which a generic kitchen at one point changes into a grim hospital room with remarkable effectiveness. Layered and split by three black frames, it is expertly lit by Marika Kent, whose cinematic lighting achieves something like blackout cuts and changes of focus. Their work together displays the ingenuity that can arise when simplicity is made artistically intricate through a clear vision...”
