Le deuil n’est pas toujours visible Le film montre que : le chagrin n’est pas forcément spectaculaire on peut être brisé sans pleurer l’absence d’émotion est parfois une forme de protection Cette absence d’émotion visible peut être une douleur profonde, pas un manque d’amour Davis n’est pas insensible → il est déconnecté. Avant de se réparer, il faut comprendre ce qui est cassé. Et pour comprendre, il faut parfois accepter de regarder sa douleur en face, même si ça fait peur.
Synopsis

Loved it, no like, I LOVED IT. I think that’s one of the best movies that shows how grief can really be, not always you can cry about it,and anybody has his personal way. And hello? Can we talk about the deep metaphors that this movie has??? 😍😍
