I geniunely want to know if my script is bad or not (Short - 11 pages)

Title: Anesthesia

Format: Short

Page Length: 11

Genres: Drama, Sci-Fi

Logline: In a near future world, a 17 year old girl is forced to sell her happiness to pay for her sick brother’s medication.

I've spent a couple months on this script, and I've really put a lot into it. But I'm very much a beginner and I don't have a great perspective on whether or not my script is legitimately good or not. I'm not interested in making something "good for a student writer", I want my art to be good without any labels.

How should I go about rewriting my short?

I'm writing a short film. I've finished the first draft and now I've gotten a lot of feedback from many different people. I even paid someone to give notes and he sent back a few pages clearly written by a robot (though there were some good notes).

I'm a little overwhelmed by the amount of feedback and changes I could do. How should I go about writing the next draft? Should I keep only the best parts and change re-outline everything else based on the feedback? If there are fundamental issues, how should I rewrite?

Any advice would be very appreciated. Also, if anyone wants to read it I'd love to send it to you.

I've seen a lot of behind the scenes content for many different movies/shows. While very interesting, they rarely show much of the actual shooting process, director notes, etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions of videos? Thanks.
