Acid Test (2021)
Visually and Emotionally Moving

More than an acid trip. This film takes you on a journey of a young girl's path to understanding her family's dynamics and how love can take many forms and is expressed differently by each family member.
Loved the subtle ways of contrasting differences. For example she does not learn her immigrant mother's language, yet the rich boyfriend speaks fluent Spanish to his maid.
Camera work and the actors subtle (and not so subtle) expressions, the editing and sound all add layers of interest and depth to the total experience
I really like the true facts vs how it's remembered aspect as well. Thoroughly enjoyed and was moved by the entire performance.
