A therapeutic movie for me

This was kind of a therapeutic movie for me. Last year my dog got sick in a really unexpected way, and he got bad in a really short time. Although he was old enough, it was kind of unexpected, and harsh enough to accept the fact that we must put him to sleep. At that time, I didn't have enough strength to be there at the time of his death, so I kind of missed the process of true grieving. During this movie I watched all the scenes and I survived. I cried myself out so much and that was the spot on the i. So it is therapeutic value that I see in this movie.

The movie itself is funny, and realistic at the same time. Although it is not very complex kind of movie, it shows some important social topics. It shows different types of lives and characters through some very common stories. We all have our own ways, no matter how sometimes they seem like cliches. And as it says, it is not that nobody tells us that life and family is hard, but we don't want to believe in it. Although it is sometimes hard, if we are committed enough it will pay itself out. The life of Sebastian is hard in its own way. You just can't have everything, so you must choose what is your path.

I liked this movie very much and I recommend it.
