Plot:
Every Tuesday, Allie (Megan McGill) goes to her dad’s place. But there is something more going on this Tuesday.

Tuesday is an atmospheric short film that leaves viewers guessing a little at what is happening. I have to admit, that it left me guessing too much – if it hadn’t been for the film description, I would be still wondering about the empty Tuesday here. The film does have some of the same themes that Wells explores in Aftersun a few years later, and thus shows how much Wells has grown since this early work. It is an engaging piece of cinema with a fantastic performance by McGill, but overall a little raw and unpolished, and not in an intentional way.
