Love that all Kristófer had to say was that he was from a volcano island and Bam, Takahashi accepted him. It was a really lovely tender view into a person immersing themselves in a new culture and becoming a part of it.

This was so sweet and sad at the same time. In a way, it reminded me of movies such as Past Lives and how I’m a kind of a masochist for enjoying movies like these.
I absolutely adored every character,

الصراحه الفلم كان جبار، من نص الفلم وانا كنت داري انه شي مو طبيعي. الفكرة، التمثيل، القصة، والعلاقات كانت بالنسبة لي خيال. مستغرب شلون التقييم مو عالي والله مو بس يستاهل ٥، يستاهل اكثر
خرا على nostalgia خرا على الابو، او خرا على البنت (بس هم مسكينه) بس خرا عليها (السموحه على السب بس يعني شوي طلع من قلب ماعليه)
