the grief
Kirpianuscus25 November 2023
Warning: Spoilers
An intense story , based on admirable minimalism.

A young man, after a blood test, discovers being HIV positive.

Before the dinner, he confess this painful truth to his father. Who encourage it, offering a tinny hope against his own grief.

A film crafted by small details , from the book spines, suggesting the job of father, to the photos.

The gentle - minimalistic manner to craft this beautiful, in profound sense, short film, is the basic virtue and the first motif to be impressed by it.

A film offering honest - direct portrait of fear and love between father and his son, about loneliness and a painful past.

The scene when the mother invites her son to dinner is maybe the most powerful of film.

Admirable acting, wise crafted story in gentle - precise manner.

critic situation

Warning: Spoilers
A man and his son.

The rooms of house, defining, by book spines and photos the characters.

The son receives a package. He make a blood test . The result is more than terrible , shared, before dinner, to his father.

The terrible sadness of young man seems compensated by calm of older.

But the film offers, grace to its wise crafted minimalism, precious slices of pure truth. A film about love and consequences of past facts. A film about consolation . And about way to continue the life in the worst circomstances.

It is fair, maybe enough, to write I like it very much. Near the beautiful acting, the scene of late mother calling her son to dinner , for the favorit dish is the emblematic one.
