Going to Extremes to Win the Girl
16 March 2022
Would you check yourself INTO a psychiatric institution to win over a gal you just met and shared an exciting evening with? Turns out the protagonist did just that. Dude, Adri is hit on by Carla at a hoppin' club and they parade around town doing things that one would only be dared into doing. After that night he tries to track her down from a small bit of info and as a journalist, is able to find out she is a patient at a psychiatric institution. Undeterred by this, he learns he just can't simply casually visit any patient, thus he checks himself in and LATER learns he can't easily checkout when he wants. So in he goes and he tries to reconnect with Carla but she is bipolar so things don't go smoothly. During his time there, he meets and develops relationships with other patients and does try to better their lives which is a path he may need to take to truly win Carla. Watch how this interesting concept plays out, the other lives he'll effect, what will it take for him to get back out and will Carla be able to join him? This was a fun little concept, had good character development, good acting, a bit cliché at times and I never really warmed to either character thus wasn't too drawn in their emotions but it was fairly unique to see how it ended up.
