Kintsugi is an intriguing documentary that delves into the aftermath of a traumatic event at an art school, focusing on how friendships can shift in the wake of shared pain. The tone is raw, almost unfiltered, capturing not just the emotional weight of the #MeToo movement but also the delicate process of healing—illustrated metaphorically through the act of repairing a broken bowl. The pacing is contemplative, allowing moments of silence to settle, letting the viewer really feel the weight of the story. The practical effects of the bowl-gluing scenes are simple yet poignant, enhancing the film's themes of restoration and vulnerability. Performances from the ensemble cast bring an authentic depth, making it distinctive in how it tackles heavy subjects with a dose of honesty that’s hard to shake off.
