Aftersun

“*Aftersun* is a masterclass in atmospheric restraint, using sun-drenched nostalgia and fragmented home-video aesthetics to capture the ache of memory. Paul Mescal delivers a devastatingly nuanced performance that anchors this quiet, deeply moving portrait of the chasm between how we perceive our parents and who they truly are. It is essential viewing for those who appreciate slow-burn character studies that linger in the heart long after the credits roll.”
