It's not your typical love story, but rather a reflection on dreams and disappointments. The pacing is contemplative, with moments that linger just enough to let you feel the weight of lost hopes. There’s a certain grittiness to the visuals, which almost mirrors the subject matter—bed bugs serving as a metaphor for their struggles. Watching him revisit their dreams of a five-course restaurant and a life with adopted kids, you can’t help but feel the bittersweet tinge of nostalgia. It’s distinct in how it handles intimacy, showcasing the fragility of love against a backdrop of chaos.
