Movie discussion...Vast of Night

It's an Amazon movie, and it's nearly unknown. Has anyone seen it? I liked it, but there are some character flaws that made me not love it. However, it was worth the 90 minutes of my life.

60's style sci-fi alien story, think of Close Encounters. It got bad reviews overall, but I think that's because it's not flashy. There are several 5, 6, 7 minute single take camera shots, only about 4 actual locations of interest, and in one case, the scene is 10 minutes looking at the face of the main character working a telephone switchboard...no cuts, no camera motion, no effects, just you and her.

It could have been a stage play.
