Trifle

About This Movie

Trifle is a quietly haunting piece that blends sorrow with an odd sense of tenderness. The film dives deep into the complexities of grief through the lens of a pharmacist who, while trying to navigate his own loss, crosses paths with a methadone patient who finds solace in trifle desserts. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative at times, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere of melancholy and introspection. It’s not flashy, and the practical effects are almost non-existent, but the raw performances really anchor the film. What stands out is how it explores themes of connection and healing, wrapped in this unlikely bond between two very different characters. Quite a unique take on human struggles, really.
