Former high-school sweethearts Jim (Mark Duplass) and Amanda (Sarah Paulson) have been out of touch for more than 20 years - but by sheer coincidence, they run into each other at a grocery store back in their alpine hometown of Crestline, California. Jim's mother has died and he's here to put her house on the market. Amanda is visiting her pregnant sister. They get to talking, first over coffee, then over beer and jellybeans. Before they know it they're at Jim's mother's house, where everything sends them spiralling back into the past. Jim and Amanda's lives have taken different directions, yet here they are, reconnecting like nothing has changed. (Toronto International Film Festival)

T-shirts in the closet, Chinese soup, and bad moments in life. After years, someone dared to go to the waters where usually only Richard Linklater goes, and I am very glad that it was the Duplass brothers, Jay Duplass and Mark Duplass, who prove that the series Togetherness was not just dumb luck. Sarah Paulson has also been in great form for the past few years, and finally, she is doing so even outside of Ryan Murphy's TV series. In the meantime, I am slowly waking up from this flood of memories and nostalgia. Some secrets are meant to remain closed, but just like Jim and Amanda, sometimes I can't resist and I have to go back to them once again.
