The Asadas are a family we all want to be, close and silly.
This movie carries that satisfying mix of slice of life, comedy, and drama.
I, as a photographer, could relate to what the main character had to face on his journey of taking images.
I really enjoyed the acting as well as the writing for this movie. I felt like I was really watching a family through several years of their lives. I was on their emotional roller coaster and thoroughly enjoying it. I even caught myself smiling without realizing I was.
This story did take a swift turn, but it was a great change in perspective on the purpose of taking photographs. Photographs are not just made to hang at an exhibition, but great tools for remembering those moments we miss. Photographers create what they wish to see and through the lens we see what matters to us.
I wholeheartedly would rewatch this and recommend it to all!
