Bonnie Rodini did a wonderful job with this move, especially considering she filmed it during the first wave of Covid. Our protagonist Olive is a young dental hygienist with what appears to be yet another broken heart who is still yearning for her father, and she decides to go to Greece to find out what really happened to his house, which her mother does not want to discuss, and upon arriving she discovers an entire village is against her. But through the friendship of a young boy and her own tenacity and goodness, she overcomes adversity and heals the past for all of those involved. This is one of the best movies I've seen in years.. it has heart, and it shows not only the goodness of the human spirit, but that of the healing power to be found in facing the Truth. A lovely movie indeed.
