Because We Are Too Many is a raw and intimate drama that really dives into the complexities of motherhood and mental health. Set against the backdrop of pandemic-stricken Glasgow, it captures a unique tone that feels both claustrophobic and deeply personal. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of silence to resonate, which can be quite powerful. What stands out is Eve Leonard-Walsh's dual role as director and lead; her performance feels genuine, almost like you're peering into her own life. The practical effects and the way the environment is used create a palpable atmosphere of isolation. With her young son also acting alongside her, there’s a certain authenticity that’s hard to replicate. It’s a film that lingers, making you reflect long after it’s over.
