Citrus

About This Movie

So, 'Citrus' takes you on this introspective journey, right? Lena's return to her family's citrus farm is beautifully layered with tension. You can really feel the weight of those years she spent away. The atmosphere is thick with nostalgia, but also that biting edge of disillusionment as she realizes her parents' marriage is crumbling. The pacing is quite deliberate, allowing moments of silence to speak volumes. The performances, especially from Lena's mother, Emory, are raw and quite haunting, showcasing the complexities of love and emotional turmoil. What really struck me is the use of the farm itself, almost as a character, reflecting the decay of family dynamics. It's not flashy or overdone, just gut-wrenching in its subtlety. Definitely leaves a mark.
