I could watch this film over and over again. I had the pleasure of seeing a screening of it in the city it was filmed in: Portland, Maine... The writing is incredibly clever and tells a story you're immediately invested in. I cried, felt joy, and laughed like I haven't laughed in a long time. The direction is beautiful and honest, making it easy to feel a part of the story. And the acting! Pure and authentic. The characters' realness grabs you and tugs at your guts (in the best way). Do yourself a solid and find a way to see this film. You'll relate, connect to yourself, and feel seen when it's over.
