After

About This Movie

So, 'After' (2020) dives deep into the emotional fallout of loss with a rawness that feels almost palpable. It’s about a gay couple grappling with the unimaginable—losing their daughter—and how they cope in such contrasting ways. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to sit with the heaviness of grief, which may not resonate with everyone. But it’s the performances that really shine, capturing the fragility of their bond as they navigate their sorrow. There’s a distinct atmosphere, an almost suffocating sense of despair that lingers long after the credits roll. It’s not just a story about loss; it’s a complex look at how grief can fracture even the strongest relationships.

The film 'After' has seen limited releases, making it somewhat elusive for collectors. Its exploration of LGBTQ+ themes within a deeply personal narrative offers a unique point of interest. While it may not have garnered widespread recognition, the emotional depth and strong performances have captured the attention of niche audiences. As a result, there's growing curiosity among collectors about its availability in various formats, particularly for those looking to add more nuanced LGBTQ+ cinema to their collections.
