Great Indie Romance Film set in St. Louis

I really enjoyed this film! While it's an indie, the cinematography looks excellent, and the score was really well crafted also. I love a good romance story, and I think there are piece of this that anyone can relate to. Overall, definitely plays like a Drama, but also has some funny and cute moments peppered in. The formatting is also really cool in regards to flashbacks and how they're used to interrupt the linear storytelling in regards to specific locations. Really enjoyed that aspect of it as well.

I also really enjoyed that it was set in St. Louis, which is an awesome city and I can't recall many (if any) other films that are set there. Overall, a great watch and definitely I film I could see myself re-watching again down the line.

A beautiful, heartfelt movie

I loved following these two characters and seeing how their relationship and sense of self develops throughout the course of this film! The dialogue is very well written and had the perfect mix of fun and emotional moments. And the actors are so talented and had the attention of the audience the entire time as they made us go from laughing to smiling to tearing up. And the cinematography is very modern and impressive. I constantly was thinking "wow that's an amazing shot." And I love how much this movie showed us St. Louis-- a city I've never been to but now must visit! Overall, definitely check out this movie, it's a delight.

An Ode to Growth

This felt like the relationship version of Memento--it was an earnest and heartfelt look at the two distinct phases of a relationship--the beginning of the love, and the beginning of the moving on. Closure can take a lot of different forms, and the relationships in After We're Over are no different. The characters, what they're looking for, what they wind up finding--they're all very nuanced--in the writing and the performances. The structure felt really stream-of-consciousness, so if you're a stickler for the paint by numbers style storytelling, this isn't for you. But you should open your mind--you might find gems like this. Also, of particular note, the soundtrack was absolutely incredible.

Great film!

I had no idea what the movie was about going in. I hadn't seen a trailer. I hadn't read a review. I was going in blind, and I'm glad I did! It was a pleasant surprise. AFTER WE'RE OVER is a wonderful character study, focusing entirely on two people (Sazerac and Zelzah), ex-lovers who reunite after a year. The film is beautifully shot and well-acted. I especially enjoyed how the film seamlessly cut between past and present, between the "good times" of their relationship and the awkward/painful reunion. And the ending (NO SPOILERS) is poignant and profound. It truly captures the essence of modern-day love & breakups. Not to mention, it's also a love letter to St. Louis. Any St. Louisans out there should definitely check it out!

This movie is Art!

The performances are stunningly genuine. The story is incredibly relatable. The cinematography is epic. The score is beautiful. The editing is engrossing.

The movie explores the complexity of relationships, the baggage we bring to them, and the importance of self-love. As an architect, I adored the layering of St Louis's history, the impacts of redlining, and using our shared history to find individual paths forward. As a takeaway, I'm inspired to do more and take more for myself. I only have amazing reviews for After We're Over and need to plan a trip to St. Louis. Cause truly, where else can you find a bus hanging from a building?
