Ruby

About This Movie

So, 'Ruby' is this raw drama that dives deep into the life of a veterinary technician battling addiction. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, which really brings you into her world. You can feel her loneliness seep through the screen. The pacing is deliberate; it gives you space to kind of sit with her struggles—like she’s trapped in a cycle that feels all too real. The performances are gritty, especially from the lead. It’s not just about the addiction, but the moral conflicts she faces while caring for animals. There's a certain realism in how the practical effects are used, making the emotional stakes hit even harder. It’s a film that feels very personal, you know?
