      Audience Member This is an exquisite gem of a film, a sweet love letter to a friendship struck at age 12 between two immigrants to Connecticut, one Israeli and one Vietnamese. Ela Thier deserves great credit for a gentle, observant, often funny screenplay. Thier wrote, directed, and costars as the mother in this low-budget, wonderfully photographed autobiographical story. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Very well told, from a child's perspective. I recommend. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
