Heartache in a WhatsApp voice note: With nothing more than a voice note and unfussy footage of a girl playing with her hair, actor / director / scriptwriter Ashraf Hamdi’s short film, Hesitant, gives us insight into an unseen narrator’s heartache. Complete with the beeps and pops of sending a voice note on WhatsApp, the film, which runs under two minutes long, relays its core message with impressive speed and accuracy as we gather all the information and emotions from the (hesitant) voice note. Hesitation is the sixth installment of Hamdi’s aptly titled series, Voice Note (watch, runtime 1:28).
