So, 'Dears In The Headlights' is this intriguing documentary that dives deep into grief and art, you know? It follows Philly after she loses her brother to a drunk driving accident. Rather than spiral down, she finds solace in taxidermy, which is pretty unique. The way she salvages roadkill, restoring these creatures into something almost beautiful, it’s haunting yet oddly uplifting. The atmosphere is thick with melancholy but also this strange warmth as she transforms her pain into something tangible. Pacing feels deliberate, inviting you to sit with her emotions. The practical effects—watching her work—are raw and real. It’s a study in coping and the human condition, really. Definitely a different kind of documentary that lingers with you.
