On a Fun, but Bumpy, Road with Onward
While the film didn’t hit me as emotionally as I wanted it to, I still enjoyed it. I simply wish there was a little more, particularly with the world building.
Blanca noche

When the sun goes down, she prepares herself, she has to comply with only one rule, not to turn on the light.
