"I felt like I had missed out on the most important things, while I was busy with other things so futile I couldn't even remember them."
Breathtaking scenery, emotional story. It touches on so many things: childhood friendship extended into adulthood, parental estrangement and regret, finding one's path in life, be it more or less travelled, and cycles repeating themselves, sometimes in good ways, sometimes bad. In some ways the film moves slowly, allowing the viewer to soak in the quiet lifestyle and contemplate along with the characters, and in other ways, quickly, not finishing every conversation or connecting all the dots. I loved this approach, and the power in the story. This one is a gem.
