I love the way that this is shot -- the camera gives the story interest. I watched all of the Apple Pie movies and this one is the best. I think that it is the Dogme 95 essence that makes such a difference. That raw approach really strips away the flash and you are left with the truth of the story and camera work. It was brave of you to do this and at the same time very simple and honest.
I agree with the concept that this is a great way to learn the fundamentals of film making -- the conventional way is cost prohibitive -- so honing one's skill is almost impossible -- the cost of film along will kill you. This way practice really can make perfect.
