All Shall Be Well《從今以後》(2024)

Lovely insight into themes of home, family and moving on after one's partner passes. Love what the director said about how the situation was dramatic enough, and so he took a more restrained approach with the narrative. While I love the focus on the main and supporting family characters, I also love the friends who played a smaller role in the film. One particular scene with a lawyer friend had me tickled. Most of all, I love that this story zeroed in on characters whose stories are usually not told a lot currently amongst popular culture. Those who caught the director's last film Suk Suk《叔。叔》will find a similar style here.
