Meghan, new to the job, navigates her first week with Bonnie, an elderly woman who has a refreshingly unorthodox approach to her own care. The film's tone is both warm and challenging, showcasing the complexities of human connection through beautifully intimate scenes. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of silence to linger, which really accentuates the emotional weight. The performances feel genuine, particularly from the lead, whose evolving relationship with Bonnie serves as the heart of the film. It’s distinctive in its depiction of vulnerability and strength, capturing the bittersweet dance between independence and the need for care.
