A woman struggles to come to terms with bereavement.
A masterful performance by Nicola Walker who holds our attention and sympathy throughout despite a sparse script and only occasional interactions with others.
Therapy, family and kindness don't seem to help. She seems stuck in a loop of sadness.
There are flashbacks of some traumatic event which aren't entirely explained. Time is suspended in this quietly compelling film as we watch a widow trying to fill the emptiness of life without her beloved husband. Then seamlessly and magically she finds some kind of resolution.
Nicely shot in a subdued palette.
Slightly uneven at times.
But ultimately rewarding.
