Synopsis

June and her Persian-British mom Lela travel to the romantic Azores for a grief anniversary, with contrasting ways of coping. A hot-and-deep surfer takes them on a tour as we surf the waves of life, loss, flirting - an unforgettable ride.

Moviegoers are saying

Lilian T. Mehrel's debut 'Honeyjoon' emerges as an emotionally complex meditation on grief that masterfully balances tear-inducing comedy with profound loss, creating what one reviewer dubbed 'the fulljoon experience.' Audiences are praising its authentic portrayal of mother-daughter relationships and its ability to ground viewers in a full-embodied journey through waves of laughter, grief, and healing.

“Do you think we can ever truly be happy? Or is it just an illusion?” “I think it comes in waves—in the little moments, but it’s not forever. Even more good reason to ride the wave when it comes, even if it will go. Because it will go.”

Sensual, silly, and messy. Few truer summations of life at its best. Loved this.

So Honeyjoon was made with a million dollar budget as a part of the AT&T Untold Stories Pitch Program and with that, they shot the film on location in the Azores?! Damn. I will say Honeyjoon overstayed its welcome a few too many times for my liking. But narratively, I do…

“Then there’s a different kind of sensuality in being in your body in grief, of crying or feeling it in your body, and feeling the ache in your heart. Everyone alive, we have one thing in common. We all have a body. There’s something about grounding us in our senses, which…
