A therapy session digs deep as a couple pursue the impossible. Kathleen Winter directs “Jebivetar,” a playful, free-spirited mini-comedy on love, facing fears, and fucking the wind.

Endearingly awkward and meta, Winter’s film takes an unexpected turn near the end that breaks it open and fulfills the titular promise. -KA.
