Aftersun

on december of 2018 i went on a trip with my dad to “clear my mind” as he put it. i remember feeling frustrated with him that he pretended to care about my wellbeing, that he was not interested in the slightest with what was going on in my life. i went on the trip anyway. i fondly remember how proud he was of me that i have managed to come on to the trip with him. shortly after he would pass away. i did not know it then but he was planting little memories of him everywhere.  this film will always have a special place in my heart for not only feeding my memories of my dad in the gentlest way possible but showing me a glimpse of what he might have been going through.
