  ★★★★★ Rewatched 16 Feb 2025

  My definition of a perfect film. So many indelible moments: Celine at the book shop, the garden walk, the boat on the Seine, the cab ride. And that immaculate ending. ❤️❤️❤️

  Sugarcane 2024

  ★★★★ Watched 12 Feb 2025

  Harrowing docudrama with a pivotal thematic exploration of the consequences of the trauma of colonialism and the moral corruption of the Catholic Church.
