Call Your Mom

About This Movie

So, 'Call Your Mom' is this quiet gem from 2025 that really focuses on April's journey through a new city, and it’s grounded in her relationships and, oddly enough, food. The pacing is pretty deliberate, allowing moments of reflection that mirror her internal struggles. The atmosphere is warm yet tinged with a sense of longing, capturing that transitional phase in life. You can feel the cultural connections really weave through each scene, almost like a character in itself. The performances are genuine, especially how April navigates her new circle and seeks comfort in culinary ties. It's not flashy or over-the-top, but it’s distinctive in how it tackles themes of found family and healing. A solid watch for those who appreciate character-driven stories.
