Forward

About This Movie

So, 'Forward' is this documentary that dives into Anjelica Avella's journey through the outdoors, which really feels like a personal exploration more than just a film. You get this palpable sense of her struggle and triumph, especially given the lack of representation among plus-size women of color in outdoor spaces. The pacing is reflective, allowing viewers to soak in the landscapes and her thoughts. There's something raw and honest about her storytelling that hits differently. It’s not just about hiking; it’s about creating a community and finding oneself in nature. It’s a distinctive take on mental health and inclusivity that feels refreshing.
