The Disappointing Factor
The show is not for those who want colourful and thrilling scenes. It is a documentary, so the plot is slow-paced and soft. Even though the main character’s being unacceptable because of her situation, it still doesn’t explain some of the things she is doing. The movie is presented subtly without any rush, but since it is expressed in such an aesthetic, it won’t be boring to watch.
In-Depth Analysis
The movie is good as a documentary. Acting is something interesting to say. They played every scene with emotion. The main character’s niece hasn’t gotten over the death of her mother, so she couldn’t open a letter her mother left for her. These scenes are done perfectly. The story goes forward with the letter and invitation the main character’s sister left for her daughter before her death. He combined different genres and perspectives into this single movie. It is interesting to watch how they reveal all the mixed up situations.

Every character is perfect for their scenes. The characters expressed everything good. Supporting characters also did their best. The main character expressed her feelings very well.

Overall Opinion
The plot is a little deep. It takes time to understand the main character. If we couldn’t understand the reason behind her decisions, we would never have liked the movie. The aesthetics and the cinematography are pleasing.
