Lifeline

Review

An aspiring writer volunteering at a suicide hotline on New Year’s Eve receives a distressed call from someone who appears to be a younger version of himself in this tight, mind-bending meditation on trauma. The setting naturally generates tension as their conversation spirals into a real-time crisis with implications that stretch far beyond a single phone call. Anchored by a compelling structure and a firm grasp on its own limits, the film builds to a payoff that feels earned without ever overstaying its welcome.
