A More Perfect Union 

Amid the chaos of the early COVID-19 pandemic, NSA whistleblower Henry Berg is running out of time. Facing a rigged trial and two decades in prison, he searches desperately for the one explosive truth hidden among the 20,000 files he stole. But while Henry fights to leave his mark on history, his spouse, Stella, is losing the person who shaped hers. As her mother’s health deteriorates, Stella grapples with the weight of unresolved wounds, the evolving truth of their own identity, and the loud unraveling of their marriage. When a long-buried secret reveals Henry isn’t their child’s father, Stella drifts toward Avery—their daughter’s famous birth father—seeking comfort in the possibility of something new. When Henry risks everything to reunite with Stella, their love proves undeniable—but whether love is enough remains an open question.

'The Half of it' Handles its Presented Social Issues Thoughtfully

The social issues The Half of it takes on are handled well, between the antagonization brought on to Ellie for her race and the conflict that arises from her being gay. Both aspects of her character are built up over the course of the film and don’t seem abrupt or rushed. The film shows racism towards Ellie and her and father in varying levels, from having her schoolmates specifically address her as "Chinese girl” to the fore mentioned way her Dad is treated due to language barriers. The same can be said about Ellie being a lesbian. While she never truly “comes out” in the narrative, that does not undermine her journey of self-discovery from being meaningful. These ideas aren’t thrust upon the viewer in a preachy manor, the scenarios that occur feel believable given the rural setting. The film presents watchers with problems whom those like Ellie may face, and leaves us to sit with them and reflect.
