My Film Recommendation
My recommendation for the advent calendar is the film I enjoyed the most this year – Everything Everywhere All At Once, dir. by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert. It tells the story of a woman who, having gained the ability to travel between parallel universes and experience the lives she could have led, becomes the only person who can subdue a mortal threat to the existence of everything.
The film is incredibly creative, presenting a multiverse concept inspired by the work of Japanese artist Ikeda Manabu. Beyond the chaos and excitement of the film’s action sequences is a moving portrait of familial love in all its complexity and friction. The ending left me crying tears of joy! It instantly became one of my favourite films.
