A warm, beautiful movie about the trials of growing up, be that as a parent, child, or simply someone who has lost their way. The twists and turns of life, searching to belong, find friendships and a place to call home. The laughs are subtle, but with heart. Whilst there are without doubt, messages of a political and social nature, I preferred to watch and enjoy with a more naive eye, perhaps in the same way as our leading characters do. A simple world, where Roz takes the wilderness around her at face value, and offers to do little more than she, or we, are programmed to do at our (processing) core… help those around us, and try not to do anything to the detriment of them. Sad, uplifting and most of the things in between. Wonderful.
