Nice look into a realistic family life with complex, flawed, relatable characters. It doesn't have a happy ending as such, but draws to a nice close where you can imagine that the characters go on and have overall happy lives.

No plot just vibes, thoroughly enjoyed! I liked the idea of all the scenes being at the table/with characters eating, and it didn't feel forced. Characters felt very real and the writing was great!
