Flying Lessons (2023)
Directed by Sarah G. Waldron
“Shit, shit, shit. Not moving a bit!”
Drama, Comedy · 1h 25m
Two estranged adopted sisters are forced together by their mother's sudden death: Beatrice, an autistic Chinese high school senior who wants to learn to fly, and Talia, a queer black musician who never wanted custody of Beatrice in the first place. Starring the autistic actress the story is based on, the film blurs narrative and documentary styles and showcases a unique and underrepresented perspective on death and grief.
