Politically Independent, Humanist. Hobby photography. Beside myself with grief, worry, and anger about this far-right takeover of the US.

Re-watched this. It only grossed 9 mil of the 20 mil it took to make, (2022; wide US release 2023) but won several important writers' and film critic awards and was nominated for an Academy Award for best picture. Written and directed by Sarah Polley and based on the book by Miriam Toews.

Cyril. Dark, snowy day, but shouldn't interrupt eating. Fox squirrel shares the yard with the grey squirrels, but separately. They don't interact at all. So interesting.
