Sophie reflects on the shared joy and private melancholy of a holiday she took with her father twenty years earlier. Memories fill the gaps between camcorder footages as she tries to reconcile the father she knew with the troubled man she didn't.
Community Reviews
Aftersun captivates audiences with its poignant exploration of a father-daughter relationship, marked by subtle storytelling and powerful performances, particularly from Paul Mescal. Viewers are moved by the film's melancholic yet beautiful portrayal of shared memories and the unspoken sorrows of a father. The film's slow, contemplative pace allows for a deep emotional connection, although some find this pacing a bit too languid. The narrative's reliance on visual storytelling over explicit dialogue invites viewers into a deeply personal emotional journey.
👍 Powerful performances and subtle storytelling.
👎 Pacing may be too slow for some.

20 reviews(je log quelques médias que j'ai vu depuis quelques temps déjà mais que j'aime torl pour ne pas mettfe) Est-ce vraiment nécessaire de m'exprimer sur le film ? Tout est parfait, le film est magnifique aussi bien visuellement que scénaristiquement parlant. Les thèmes abordés sont giga intéressants et le travail sur les silences et les non-dit est remarquable. Le film a une bande son juste parfaite et les acteurs sont fantastiques. Bref c'est mon film favori, il mérite tout l'amour du monde (cependant attention à ne pas inonder la salle avec ses larmes)
A super contained, grounded, and heartfelt film with some of the best performances I’ve ever seen. Definitely not a lighthearted story but definitely one worth the watch.
