“Concussion” is a small package, remaining intimate with its characters
and composed with its drama. It’s a story of female sexuality told with
interest in the subject, not just flying a flag of womanliness to
attract a male audience. It’s tasteful work about a salacious subject,
with writer/director Stacie Passon taking tremendous care with the
subtleties of the story, sacrificing narrative drive to perfect moments
of human connection and the parched crawl of lust. “Concussion” isn’t
what it appears to be, making a considerable effort to upend
expectations and carry onward with determination, working to scrape away
the artificiality of female desire to survey an uneasy spot of
dissatisfaction most viewers may identify with.
