A Story of Snow 

Kat Wahlen’s The Whiteboard tells, or rather shows, a delightful love story between two young women who meet in detention.

A surprise sequel takes place ten years after the original movie based on the title of the same name, but with a twist to the fairy tale.

Darren Arronofsky focuses on diverse and heartbreaking stories about the human experience.

A bond between a girl and her dog takes an unexpected twist as the dog is not what it seems.

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.

The Outer Senshi get characterization and some stellar moments in the second part of the Eternal movie duo.
