This is one of the most beautifully written films about life that I’ve ever watched. It’s about what it means to be alive and I can’t remember the last time I watched a film that made me think this much about life and death.
Winston Duke is phenomenal, genuinely one of my favourite performances of all time, I didn’t realise what an incredible actor he was but in this film his talent is on full display.
The acting is great all across the board. Whoever casted this film did such a great job, everyone in this film gave a hell of a performance.
The soundtrack is incredible and so is the cinematography. The film starts kinda slow but once it picks up, it gives you this deeply sad feeling that stays with you throughout the film. It leaves you with so much to think about, so many different things that make you really think about what being alive means to you.
I really thought this was amazing.
9.0/10
