Beefies

About This Movie

So, 'Beefies' is a family flick that dives into the complexities of familial relationships, set against the backdrop of a pandemic Seder. It has this warm, almost nostalgic tone, with a good balance of humor and genuine moments. The pacing feels conversational, like you’re eavesdropping on a family reunion that swings from laughter to tears. The cooking scenes are quite something—there’s a real emphasis on the act of making food as a way to connect, both with their mother’s memory and each other. The performances, though from lesser-known actors, bring a kind of authenticity that feels really relatable. It’s not flashy, but it taps into something very human, especially for anyone who's navigated family dynamics during tough times.
