I was so moved by this film. It touched on so many elements of grief and loss. The story is a simple one, but the writing is so elegant and intelligent that I never felt as if I was being manipulated or patronized. A feeling I sometimes get from films with such intense emotional content.
The film was directed so well... and knowing that this is Shana Feste's directorial debut makes it all the more impressive. She was able to capture such amazing performances from all the actors. Performances that never hit too hard, but still would engage almost any audience. All of the actors were pitch perfect.
I look forward to this film being released. I'd like to see it again.
