This film is deeply moving and stays with you long after it's over. I admit, it's not what I expected, but I didn't do any research on it before watching it. The plot deals with one man's painful journey through grief, and it quickly drew me into the rawness and emotion of the struggle, sometimes uncomfortably so. It's not light, it's not a romance, and it's not an action movie, but it is brilliantly acted and beautifully shot. More importantly, it left me with a much better understanding of grief and grieving people. All that said, the movie isn't depressing. There's a sense of hope that pervades the film, growing brighter throughout. I REALLY liked this movie!
