Accurate Lgbtq+ Representation

I feel like I found put a review for this film, since no one else has.

I absolutely loved this movie, it had accurate sapphic representation. It’s pretty hard to find decent wlw films/dramas that don’t fetishize those relationships... I was balling my eyes out near the end because it’s accurate, and a ton of non-straight people experience similar thoughts and relationships. It kinda makes you snap back to reality after watching happy ending, always perfect relationship romances.

—————————————————————————————

THINGS I LIKED
1. accurate lgbtq+ representation // they showed how it can be difficult for some lgbtq+ people to be in a relationship. (ex. being scared of other’s thoughts, not trusting anyone)

2. the soundtrack // absolute perfection. I was on YouTube listening to the main song and I was sobbing ahaha. It’s calming yet heartbreaking at the same time.

3. the plot // the plot isn’t messy, it’s not confusing, and it makes sense.



THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE
1. that it’s underrated // I have seen NOBODY talk about this film. I found it because I was looking for sapphic films in mydramalist.


—————————————————————————————

I promise this movie is worth the watch :D
