From start to finish, I was captivated by the short stories, all adding up to one telling tale. In the beginning, I felt a strong connection to the young girl, who looked up to her father so lovingly. Being a girl who loves her dad, it hit me in the best way. Even though our stories are different, her father being someone she can't seem to make a love/hate decision about and mine being someone who has always been there for me, I could still relate. There are always times when your parents feel like they're just drifting further and further away from you; for a girl and her dad, those are the worst.
I found myself trying to find the relation between Friedrich's one word titles and the clips of stories she was telling; some were obvious, others hidden beneath irony or sarcasm, others still seemed completely ambiguous. But, whether you understood them or not, each one drew you more invested into the story.
