Always Summer is a raw exploration of grief through the eyes of a child. Wim, just twelve, grapples with the heavy burden of guilt surrounding his father's death. The film captures his emotional chaos beautifully, with a tone that feels both tender and unsettling. The pacing is deliberate, letting the audience sit with Wim’s confusion and pain. The performances, especially by the young lead, convey a depth that often gets overlooked in dramas of this era. There’s a notable absence of grand practical effects, but it’s in the simplicity of the storytelling that this film distinguishes itself. It’s not flashy, but it’s deeply affecting in how it handles complex themes of loss and understanding.
