Carol, an office worker who has trouble expressing especially negative feelings which has led to those feelings being bottled up inside her, takes an idea from a self-help workshop she attends: to place those feelings in impromptu, stream of consciousness songs to get them out. She takes that concept to the next step by actually leaving voice messages of those songs to the subjects, the source of those negative feelings. While this action results in Carol burning bridges with most of those people for who she's left these voice message songs, it has a unique effect one recipient, Dave, her middle management boss who arguably is the biggest wrath of those negative feelings and who she, to use her own term, considers an asshole. The question then becomes whether both Carol and Dave can get out of the process what they want.

Original and great fun!
Of the 41 films I saw at SBIFF, this was the most strikingly original. I don't want to say much about the plot--and I have to admit that when I read the synopsis in the festival program, I wasn't at all interested in it. I saw it on the strength of one person telling me it was only 5/5 review she'd given a film so far. Basically, a woman decides to try and sort herself out with a form of music therapy. She can't stick the actual therapy sessions, and resorts to a DIY approach. The lead actress was wonderfully deadpan, and her hyper male counterpart the perfect contrast. The story is fun and quirky, the low-budget production actually complements the script very well, and the whole theater was constantly breaking into laughter. I came out of this one feeling cheered and optimistic, that there's hope for humanity as long as someone can come up with a movie like this.
