The Sun is Low

About This Movie

So, 'The Sun is Low' is an intriguing documentary that dives into the complexities of a mother-son relationship during a meaningful road trip. The film has this raw, almost intimate feel—like you're eavesdropping on their conversations, which are often deep and surprisingly layered for an eight-year-old. The pacing is gentle, allowing you to soak in both their dialogue and the breathtaking landscapes they traverse. It's not just about the trip; it’s about rediscovery and the emotional weight of their shared experiences. The cinematography really helps to paint the mood, contrasting the beauty of the scenery with the sometimes heavy undertones of their situation. Unique in its approach, it feels very much like a slice of life rather than a typical documentary narrative.
