So we follow a dad and a daughter on vacation on Turkey, and the entire time we are shown casual dad-daughter things - they hang at the pool and eat at the hotel and swim and sleep in the hotel and go buy some rugs or whatever, and the daughter asks the dad about his life and how it is currently going. The parents are divorced (if that wasn't obvious) and he says he broke up with the woman he was seeing, and that he wants to rent a house in London - thing is, i don't feel like describing everything that happens because. Nothing happens. We just see a holiday , no major events - you barely remember it after the movie's over because it really is nothing special.
 
And then, we see the dad crying with a note that says something along the lines of "I love you, don't forget that" addressed to his daughter. And we see his daughter being an older version of herself looking distressed and we are supposed to understand that the dad did not live past that vacation because he possibly killed himself?. Which is not told directly, you are just supposed to get that. The movie ends. And you, for some reason, get sad.
 
In conclusion, this movie makes you get attached to the good guy dad, then you get no more dad but it's not really tha big a deal. The movie just ends. I think we all kinda don't know our dads and never will fully, even though they are our dads. Aftersun was a good movie.
When i heard of this movie, it was accompanied with the phrase "#daddyissues moment" so i thought, makes sense.
 
And then i watched it in like 3 days because we all know i suck at watching movies like a normal person and have to watch it in parts because my attention span is not made for movies i guess - to be honest nothing was happening the entire time either though. This i knew - i specifically requested movies where nothing happens - but i can't say i struggled while watching either, i just happened to have things to do so i had to pause. Anyways, onto the plot.
 
SPOILER WARNING!1!1!
