The film's pacing suits its contemplative tone, allowing moments of silence to speak volumes. The cinematography captures the emotional weight of her struggle, with soft colors contrasting her fiery trauma. The performances are understated but deeply affecting, particularly from the young leads. It’s not just about music; it’s about healing and the fragility of human connection.
