Premise and perspective

It’s Your Call: Uzak ilişkide görüşmekten gelecek kurmaya Ava ve Peter uzak mesafeli ilişkilerini Skype, FaceTime, mesaj ve telefonla sürdürür. Bir akşamki konuşmaları tartışmaya dönüştüğünde ilişkinin geleceği gündeme gelir. Meryl Hathaway’in yazdığı, Jacquie Phillips’in yönettiği It’s Your Call, erişilebilir olmanın ortak bir yaşam planına sahip olmakla aynı şey olmadığı üzerinden okunabilir.

Interpretive focus

Kaynakta araçların çokluğu özellikle somuttur: Çiftin birbirine ulaşmak için tek kanala ihtiyacı yoktur. Bu yüzden mesafe yalnızca bağlantı eksikliği olarak açıklanamaz. Birlikte geçirilen ekran zamanının gelecekte kimin nerede yaşayacağına, nasıl bir yakınlık istediğine dair kararlara dönüşmesi, romantik iletişimin takvim ve emek boyutunu tartışmaya açar.

Reading the narrative

Bir akşama yerleşen konuşmanın gündelik haberleşmeden geleceğe ilerlemesi, yeni dış olaylar eklemeden konunun ağırlığını değiştirebilen bir yapı sunar. Kullanılan araçlar, aynı ilişkinin farklı temas biçimleri olarak değerlendirilebilir. Yine de teknolojiyi bütünüyle yetersiz ilan etmek öncülü daraltır; bu kanallar ortak planı engelleyebileceği gibi, ertelenen bir farkı konuşulabilir hâle de getirebilir.

Reading suggestions and limitations

Uzak ilişki deneyimini tartışan izleyici, hangi ihtiyacın hangi iletişim aracına yüklendiğini takip edebilir. Gündelik paylaşımın sürmesiyle gelecek konusunda anlaşmanın farklı başarılar olduğunu gözetmek yararlıdır. Ava ve Peter’in taleplerini birbirine çevrilebilir saymadan dinlemek, tartışmayı kimin daha çok sevdiğine ilişkin bir yarıştan çıkarabilir.

A couple argues. Ava and Peter are in a long-distance relationship and have every tech tool at their disposal to maintain their connection. They use Skype, send texts, FaceTime and even talk on the phone. But over the course of one evening, a typical catch-up conversation escalates into bickering, and soon the couple must reckon with exactly what is keeping them together, and just what their future will be. Writer Meryl Hathaway, who also plays Ava, and director Jacquie Phillips have crafted a perceptive comedy about communication, intimacy and just how difficult relationships can be, especially when both parties are still evolving in life, work and character. The film's foundation rests on an excellent, relatable script, which drills down through the levels of communication between couples as Ava and Peter talk. It begins with the sharing of quotidian experiences and details in an attempt to connect and bond with one another: the asking after work, the sharing of anecdotes, even the inside long-running jokes. These seem easy enough for Ava and Peter, who have an easygoing banter and chemistry, even over screens. But then it progresses into more deep-rooted needs and conflicts like sex, connection, intimacy and stability, and here Ava and Peter are on shakier ground. They want to meet their respective desires for connection in mutually exclusive ways, and once they realize the gap, it opens up a bigger, less bridgeable rift. In order to repair it, they need to be on the same page -- and that sadly may not be the case. Actors Hathaway -- who appears in the critically acclaimed comedy THE GOOD PLACE -- and Tyler Labine ably navigate the progression from light-hearted comedy to heartfelt drama with great chemistry, making it easy to believe that this is a couple with a long-running history. The camerawork that captures them onscreen gets increasingly more intimate as their conversations become more open and vulnerable, until the final moments, which bring us up close and personal with their final heartbreaking revelations. IT'S YOUR CALL is an intimate two-hander, which is arguably one of the most common narrative structures in short film. Yet when done with emotional honesty and a spirit of sincerity, it never fails to make a case that the most challenging journeys in human life are often the emotional ones. That's the case with this short relationship dramedy, which shows that even when armed with an arsenal of tech tools, it's never easy to communicate or hear life-changing truths, even when it's necessary.
