About This Movie

Closer Than You Think, a 2015 drama, weaves a tale of innocence and longing through the eyes of young Kohl Pihtin. He’s not just another kid at a musical contest; he’s on a quest to find the father he's never known. The film has this ethereal vibe, particularly when Kohl discovers a basement that leads to a hauntingly beautiful yet desolate reality. It plays with themes of family and choice, exploring what it means to belong. The pacing is reflective, allowing the audience to soak in the atmosphere. Notably, the practical effects are understated but effective, creating a dreamlike quality that lingers. Performances are grounded, capturing the essence of childhood wonder and despair without falling into cliché.
