On Our Own

2026 · 94 min

A quiet, emotionally raw portrait of neglected youth, unfolding with patient realism and a slow-building tenderness.

How it feels: Melancholic, earnest, warm and tense. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, family, coming-of-age, parenthood
Content: Mild language. No violence, gore or sexual content.
