the title of this film translates as “to live” and that’s exactly what it inspires the viewer to do. it is a beautiful exploration of the ways humans process death, in heavy thanks to fantastic performances across the cast. the score is used perfectly and the scene of him singing in the bar is a highlight. visually stunning as well with great cinematography. there is so much more to say about this film and so much more to think about and i genuinely loved it so much
