35 Shots of Rum (2008)

This is such an intriguing film about a father–daughter relationship and the people in their circle. The daughter (played by Mati Diop) takes care of her father and is dependent on him in many ways. Well, they're co-dependent. She doesn't know how to leave her dad and go off and live her own life. It's a struggle. This is a beautifully made film that I enjoyed immensely. It's contemplative and sad and mournful and I really loved every minute of it.
