I recently lost one of my longtime best friends. She had moved abroad years ago, and her death was sudden. I haven't really known how to go about life since. Processing—and even expressing—my grief has been an overwhelming and confusing experience.
Perhaps that’s why this film came to mind. Although the characters are much younger and their circumstances differ from mine, I saw my own grief reflected in many aspects of Léo's. It made me feel understood and validated. For that, I’m grateful to this film.
