About This Movie

Give Me 5 Minutes is a raw exploration of anxiety and the incessant pressures of life.

The performances are strikingly relatable; you can almost feel the weight of her stress through the screen. The film's atmosphere is thick with tension, but there are moments of quiet intimacy that punctuate the noise, making it distinctive. It’s not just about the race against time; it’s about the longing for a fleeting moment of peace amidst the turmoil. The direction, though unknown, effectively captures these nuances, lending an almost documentary-like authenticity to Penelope’s struggles.
