Review

A couple have lost their young kid and that have caused lots of tension and problems to their marriage. They have to face their loss on their own way before they can find their way back to each other emotionally.

Touching and realistic story of life what does not go as well as it should. Tragedies are part of life and those can cause lots of problems. I liked how the story does not focus too much on the lost child but instead the focus is on the modern day and how different people handle their sorrow and how it affects their life.

I liked how the movie told the background story for its viewer much earlier than it was said what has happened. Small clues around the house gave the viewer enough information that it was easy to guess what has happened. This is a good example how to make a movie where you tell the story without using words and without making it all too obvious for the viewer, but still you create the scenes where the viewer can understand what is the case.

Story develops nicely and characters and their emotions are shown well. This was excellent movie what handles the hard life situation where nobody should ever be, but what sadly happens in real life.
