This is a well-crafted film that would have been better named Divorce Story. It’s slow and sad, focusing on realism in the portrayal of the characters than it does on having an interesting or meaningful story. It often seems to actively avoid portraying anything meaningful, and instead portrays nihilistic existentialism as the inescapable norm. It’s solidly produced in all other respects.
Closest comparison: It’s like While We’re Young (2014) with more futile shouting.
Setting: Modern Drama
Plot: Family Drama
Tone: Nihilistic Drama
