I got this film because I watched the 2022 My Love Affair with Marriage, which is the same animation style and the same narration and which I liked a lot. This one is not as fun, but it's just as good. It's honest, it's raw, but also funny in a strange way, that thing which happens when someone is overly sincere and you can't help but be amused. This one focused on a family in which mental illness is common, narrated by someone who has similar symptoms.
What might put you off is the simplistic drawing and/or the Latvian accent narration of a text. It's basically someone reading a short story with an animation in the background. But the text is good, I really enjoyed Signe's voice and accent and the animation is inspired. The subject of the story is, yet again (can I use that for the first film? Well, who cares, it's the second one I've seen), the personal life of a female character from Latvia, I assume inspired by Baumane's own experience.
I recommend both films.
