Dolce

About This Movie

So, 'Dolce' is this intimate documentary that dives into the life of Miho Shimao, who was married to the notable writer Toshio Shimao. The film's tone is reflective, almost melancholic at times, allowing the viewer to really feel the weight of her memories. It's not flashy or overproduced, which adds to its charm—it's just straightforward, yet deeply moving. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like a slow dance through Miho's past. You get a real sense of her connection to Toshio and the impact of his work. The way the film captures the nuances of their relationship, the quiet moments, it’s kind of haunting in a good way. Definitely something that stands out for its earnest portrayal of love and loss.
