Graduation (2023) dives into the stark realities of a pandemic-stricken world.

The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the weight of each character's struggle to settle in. The performances are raw and poignant, reflecting the inner turmoil of individuals during a crisis. The film's practical effects, while minimal, enhance the realism of this dire situation. It's distinctive in how it critiques the corporate language around layoffs, forcing viewers to confront uncomfortable truths about job loss and societal expectations. A gritty look at resilience in a fractured world.
