Spanning several nonlinear chapters in the life of a people-pleasing English professor, Eva Victor’s wondrously delicate and wry debut feature is an incisive exploration of the ways that trauma ripples through a life and the slow ways it heals (and sometimes doesn’t). Set in a small coastal New England college town, we first meet Agnes (Victor, “Billions”) as her best friend Lydie (Naomi Ackie, Mickey 17) arrives for a long-overdue visit to the house they shared as graduate students. The weekend unfolds with revelations of exciting life developments and awkward dinners with former classmates. Always at the periphery of the tightly bonded friends’ familiar shorthand, though, are hints of a painful violation that shattered Agnes’ personal and academic life. Subsequent chapters reveal the whole story, with each candid vignette unfolding with a soft touch and gentle humor. Rather than depict the core incident in detail, Victor keeps the camera at a distance, focusing instead on the immediate effects of a betrayal and rocky road to recovery. Through each hop through time, we follow Agnes as she experiences the unexpectedly transformational powers of the cuddly creatures found along the way, be it dear friends, surprisingly sensitive sandwich vendors, an abandoned kitten, or a sweet neighbor played by Lucas Hedges.
