Skip

About This Movie

So, 'Skip' from 2016 is this quirky little gem set in a Newfoundland coastal town. You’ve got this guy, Skip, who's stuck juggling caring for his widowed grandfather and his own aspirations. The whole rock skipping thing? It’s not just a hobby; it’s this metaphor for his longing to break free and make something of himself. The film has this really laid-back, almost whimsical pace, which gives it a nice flow. It's got a touch of melancholy, but also warmth, especially in those moments with the grandfather. The performances are pretty grounded, and the atmosphere captures that small-town vibe well. It's definitely unique in its approach to tackling dreams and relationships, and it feels refreshingly honest.
