Single people who used to celebrate their birthdays with friends and family up to Covid-19 ruining our lives should be able to relate to the main character in this film. And even if they can't, they (and everyone else out there) will appreciate "Happy Birthday to Me" for its straight-to-the-point, show-don't-tell story-telling communicated via skilled filmmaking and acting.  

Here's hoping that anyone reading these words was able to celebrate their birthdays with friends this year... and if you couldn't, we hope your lonely celebration didn't turn out like the one in this mini-chiller!
