Bonds of Grief

I was super excited to watch this film! Going into this movie I had the understanding it would make you feel something but I underestimated how much it would actually make me feel. The film was able to take a tragic situation that instills grief and sadness and turn it into feelings of hope and healing. The movie also had a lot of examples of troubles that every human being will experience making this movie experience super relatable further increasing the emotions I as a viewer felt. I can 100% recommend this film to anyone and I'm super excited to see what this studio can do moving forward. If they can make a film at this caliber imagine what's in store once they get a bigger budget and more resources!

A reminder that grief hits us all but with a refreshing twist; the question is, will you turn your personal experiences into a strength that assists others in their time of need? The characters in this motion picture exemplify empathy and the need to treat each other with more than mere tolerance, but more importantly with love. This film shows us that in spite of the loss of a loved one, life continues. Healing comes with time, patience, remembrance, communication, and oftentimes with help from someone you least expect. Someone with a warm hug, motivating words, a soft heart, or maybe just an ear to listen. A wonderful story of people treating one another as we ought to treat each other; the golden rule in action.

I enjoyed the way the movie shows grief in different ways. We all grieve for different things in our unique ways. I wish it had gone deeper into how this issue can bond people on an unexpected level. The main character is reluctant, like most people, and feels like they must do it alone. But as the movie progresses, we learn that grief shared is lessened. It also shows that we can find new friendships/allies in our darkest times, and being open to accepting help can be the one thing we need most not isolation. This movie was a great reminder to be open to help even when we think we don't need it.

Bonds of Grief was a very touching story, many layers to situations that occur in life & even though we may think we're alone at times we aren't. The cast did a very good job! Good script, directing & camera work. Another good short film in the books for Junitos Studios who continues to get better & better at his craft. This film can make anyone tear up. It has the sad moments, laughs, it'll make you smile, everything that a day should include in my opinion. The cast really made that shine in this project, I definitely recommend this as a must watch drama.in 2024 & beyond. Congratulations cast.
