I think this film beautifully captures grieving for a person you love who has also hurt you and the emotional fallout of that.

Some of the dialogue is heavy handed but I think that can be made up for considering the main characters are artists/creatives. Beautiful locations and interiors. A lot of the frames are beautiful I just wish there was more consistency throughout within them.
