The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to sit with the awkwardness of her relationship with her grandmother, Dolores, whose faded glamour is both haunting and fascinating. The atmosphere is heavy, with a sense of nostalgia permeating the air, almost like an old theater. It’s not flashy in terms of effects, but the performances really anchor the film—there’s a stark honesty in their interactions that resonates. It’s one of those pieces that lingers after the credits roll, challenging you to think about the legacies we inherit.
