Bonsai

About This Movie

Bonsai has this quiet, contemplative vibe. It's about memory and longing, really. The way the young writer navigates his past romance while trying to connect with someone new feels intimate. The pacing is deliberately slow, giving you time to sit with each moment, and the atmosphere is kind of melancholic but not overly heavy. The performances, while understated, carry a lot of weight; you can feel the emotions simmering just below the surface. It’s interesting how the narrative unfolds, almost like a literary puzzle. Practical effects aren’t a focus here, but the simplicity of the visuals enhances the storytelling. A unique exploration of love and loss that lingers after the credits roll.
