Parents (2016) is a quiet exploration of life after the kids leave home. The film's tone is reflective, capturing that melancholic feeling of loss and nostalgia. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to sink into the couple's journey as they try to rekindle the spark of their youth. The performances are raw and relatable, presenting a genuine depiction of longing and the struggle to find purpose. The practical effects are minimal but effective, drawing focus to the characters’ emotional landscape rather than flashy visuals. It’s a distinctive piece that subtly examines themes of identity and connection, and how easy it is to feel lost when the roles we’ve known change.
