Heart-wrenching Film watching a couple suffer in different ways from the loss of their first child, who died chasing their dog into the street and was hit by a car just a step away from home.
We find a fantastic Nicole Kidman in the role of Becca: where she tries to erase memories at all costs, removing photos, clothes, drawings, anything that evokes the memory of their little son.
Howie: a father who seeks memories in videos, wants to keep the old moments and memories of the entire family at the forefront. He will attend a center for families who have experienced a devastating loss (where Becca refuses to go, denying the help of the ‘group’), where he will smoke marijuana before going and, quite stoned, he will shamelessly laugh in the face of a couple who shares their problems.
The couple lives this moment differently but tries to experience it together in the end. Despite the sadness and melancholy present from the beginning to the end of the film, there are humorous parts. It very much represents the daily reality that unfolds after and during a family bereavement.
