So, 'First, Last and Deposit' is this gritty drama that follows Tessa, a young girl grappling with the harsh realities of life as she finds herself homeless. The performances, especially by Jessica White as Tessa, really anchor the film in a raw authenticity. The juxtaposition of her struggles against the backdrop of her wealthy classmates adds a layer of social commentary that's pretty striking. You feel the weight of their situation, and the pacing has this almost haunting rhythm, drawing you into their world without the usual melodrama. It's not flashy, which makes it distinctive—just a straightforward exploration of poverty and resilience, with a tone that's both somber and reflective.
