Halfway

About This Movie

Halfway dives into the gritty atmosphere of a Christian halfway house, where Krystal, fresh out of prison, faces the challenges of rebuilding her life. The film’s pacing feels deliberate, almost languid at times, which works well to amplify the emotional weight of her struggles. The performances are quite raw, especially from the lead, who portrays Krystal with a compelling mix of vulnerability and determination. It's not flashy, but it creates a sense of intimacy and realism that’s hard to shake. The supporting cast brings their own strong personalities that shape her journey, making it a layered exploration of themes like redemption and motherhood. It’s one of those films that lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.
