Heartbreaking to watch!
francoischristana10 July 2021
Short film about a mother and her son being homeless and she trying to keep their spirits lifted. You never know the story behind how someone reach rock bottom and the struggle it is for them to try to get back to a normal life. For example, she was a stay at home mother for 10 years and her husband died from cancer. She is trying to find a job, but the job agency had no opening until the end of the film when she received good news. Even though, they were in a tight situation the boy still wanted to give strength & hope to a stranger at the doctor office, it's human nature to want to help others.

a mother. her son

A young woman. Her son. Homeless, living in a car. Her hard tries to create a magic protective circle to the boy after the death of his father. And her tries are good. A film about family, easy to see as manifesto/ remind about cruel near reality, seductive for cinematography and good dialogue and, sure, for performances. Delicate and powerful story, in same measure, it is just a very useful kick for remind small, fundamental things defining us.
