Afterlife of the Party: An Exploration of Female Friendship
Netflix's Afterlife of the Party might fall into the rom-com genre, but it's much more about grief, strong female friendships, and platonic love than it is about romance.

Oleg is a film student who leads a spartan life surrounded by analogue technology. A librarian during daytime, Marta is an avant-garde novelist who works with alternate subjectivity. Narrated from each of their perspectives, Čučić’s film recounts a romance that never ceases to take new shape.

Overall, Matthias & Maxime doesn't reinvent this romantic concept. But it also doesn't need to. Dolan weaves a story of love, friendship, and life that is both realistic and bittersweet. The film is nuanced and sensual in a way we don't get to see often with LGBTQ characters. It's a film that we can celebrate.
