Powerful movie that transcends sci-fi tropes

Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2020)

This is probably one of my favorite movies of all time, and shows me that sci-fi doesn't always need to be about the tech or the alien - this film is ultimately about language and how we communicate with each other, especially during a crisis or in the face of something world-changing and deeply unknown. I will always cry at the end of this film, because it's also about a woman confronting a difficult decision, even if she knows the consequences of it, which is so deeply human and powerfully set with the backdrop of sci-fi.
