Ecstasy (2017) dives into the life of a 75-year-old widow, grappling with her grief in an unexpected way. The film strikes a unique tone, blending comedy and drama, which feels almost surreal at times. It’s a character study wrapped in a light absurdity as we follow her journey across town for something as unconventional as buying drugs. The pacing has this almost meandering quality that reflects her internal struggle, really drawing you in. Performances are raw yet nuanced, capturing the complexities of loss and the search for solace. There's a certain charm in its practical effects that keeps it grounded, making you think about the lengths one might go to reclaim joy in their life. Certainly not your typical narrative, but that's what sets it apart.
