abril b It’s almost unbelievable that Scrap marks the feature directorial debut of Vivian Kerr. A film so intimate, raw, and emotionally precise is usually the work of a seasoned filmmaker, yet Kerr—who also writes and stars in the film—delivers a story with the kind of wisdom that feels lived-in. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Abdullah Z Through beautiful acting, the movie depicts characters who showcase resilience while showing how families deal with contemporary life and its challenges. Lana Parrilla delivers an exceptional performance as Stacy by displaying realistic and deep qualities of a woman facing IVF complications. In her role as Beth, the struggling solo mother, Vivian Kerr gives a profound depiction of a woman who hides her homelessness situation behind a fabricated facade. The film represents quiet battles of everyday life effectively, thus making the story touchingly relatable and moving.The realistic narrative contains authentic and heartwarming sections that harmonize with its foundational themes. In the role of Ben Anthony, Rapp portrays both the multifaceted bond of siblings together with their hidden emotional anguish. The emotion-driven experience emerges from perfect coordination between the writing script and directional choices and the pace of the narrative flow. The film "Scrap" deserves full attention because it delivers profound meaning in both heartfelt terms and authentic execution. This unique piece of work commands all possible appreciation. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review JENNIFER A An outstanding family drama that understands the power of subtlety. First time director Vivian Kerr admirably pulls double duty as the lead character, a recently homeless single mother forced to depend on a brother with whom she has a dysfunctional relationship. The film sheds light on timely themes like homelessness and parenthood while gently exploring the unique nuance of humanity. Unlike most dramas of its kind, the film never veers toward histrionics. It instead allows the performances, grounded dialogues and cleanly evocative cinematography to do the talking. A wonderfully restrained showcase for a debut feature.
