Mediocre film about a teenager who is having a hard time at home because her brother is dying. An unremarkable directorial debut, but with excellent acting. The film cannot be called bad, but simply a bit on the boring side. A coming-of-age story that has nothing new to offer. Just under 3.0 stars.

Drama about coming of age in a family that is split by caring for a seriously ill son. Excellent directorial debut by Laura Chinn, who reportedly partly draws on her own experiences. The young Nico Parker is also doing well.

Deeply moving portrait of teenager Doris [Nico Parker] from the moment her parents' brother Max [Cree Kawa] is transferred to Suncoast, a care institution for people in the final stages of their lives. Max has a brain tumor and Doris has been responsible for most of her brother's care for six years. The recording initially feels like a liberation and Doris manages to make friends for the first time in years. But her domineering mother [Laura Linney] is incensed by Doris' desire for freedom. Doris finds support in Paul Warren [Woody Harrelson], a widower who is at Suncoast because of the euthanasia case surrounding Terri Schiavo. Autobiographical drama is extremely well written and features a brilliant performance by Parker, who holds his own effortlessly alongside the equally excellent Linney and Harrelson. Ella Anderson, Daniella Taylor, Ariel Martin and Amarr also deserve praise for the authentic way in which they portray Doris' new group of friends. Not a false note to be found in this masterpiece that left me unable (and unwilling) to hold back my tears at the end.
