It's not just a documentary; it feels like a window into a personal space, blending the mundane with the profound. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments to breathe, letting the viewer absorb the atmosphere. You get a sense of resilience and quiet strength from Marija, her presence grounding the piece. There's something about the simplicity of the visuals and practical effects—no flashy edits—just real life unfolding.
