My New Year

About This Movie

So, 'My New Year' is a poignant piece that really digs into the emotional aftermath of the 1988 Spitak earthquake. You feel the weight of loss right from the start. The father and his kids, they’re lost in a world that’s crumbled around them, and it’s not just about the physical destruction but the emotional scars too. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to really absorb each moment—the quiet despair, the fleeting memories of what they once had. The performances are raw, particularly the father's, which feels incredibly authentic. There’s no over-the-top drama, just this understated yet powerful exploration of grief and resilience. It’s not your standard drama; it offers a real sense of place and time, immersing you in their struggle.
