Beautiful and Honest

I loved this film. It is honest, real, painful, joyful and beautiful. It is real life. The truths in life that many people walk yet most keep tucked away in a closet. The filmmaker, Cindy Kleine is brilliant. I appreciated all aspects of movie, the editing, animation, music and the truth of it. If you give this movie a chance, you will come away with the essence of Phyllis. I feel like I really met her and I know a tiny bit about her. And that to me is very worthy of a standing ovation!
