If this doesn't get nominated for at least best cinematography, sound, adaptation, and actor, I'll be devastated. The editing, composition, emotion, dialogue, casting, costuming, characters, and locations all feel beautiful, natural, and devoid of box office commercialism. Almost like an extremely…

Maybe the most I’ve cried during a movie before. This film is simultaneously comforting and incredibly melancholic. While the story is simple and slowly paced , it truly makes you feel how life can slip by you, but the lack of big moments doesn’t make it any less worth living

Fair warning, this is slow and won’t appeal to everyone especially if you need lots of action. It’s an unremarkable story about a relatively unremarkable life (like most of us) and all that life brings. It’s basically an hour and a half of beautiful meditation.
