Rest - Michael Kiwanuka

THEMES: food as a love language, cooking as a love language, healing from generational trauma, joy, love, tenderness, care, rest, sunlight, caring for your elders, finding love, looking after your siblings, grief, remembrance, the large and small moments of connection, peace, dancing as a love language, music as a love language, hands as a love language, unspoken affection, holding and being held and seen, smiling, laughter, thriving in a world that wants you dead, finding home where your loved ones are, the healing bonds between people of color, and celebrating all of that on film :)
