Mine

About This Movie

So, 'Mine' (2017) dives deep into the emotional complexities of fatherhood. It's a quiet, intimate drama that captures the tension between biological and chosen family. The atmosphere is heavy, but not oppressively so; it feels like a contemplative walk through the struggles many face in non-traditional relationships. There's a rawness to the performances, especially from the lead, who embodies the confusion and demand of suddenly being a parent to a child that isn't yours. Pacing is deliberate, allowing for moments of reflection that resonate. The practical effects are minimal here, but it’s the genuine emotions that stand out. It’s not flashy, but it’s this grounded quality that makes it distinctive in the landscape of LGBTQ+ cinema.
