FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://talkingfilms.net/sundance-2024-suncoast-is-a-moving-study-on-the-real-value-of-life/
"Suncoast is a deeply moving, thematically meaningful story, written with brilliant care in addressing sensitive topics such as inevitable grief, the hypocrisy of ethical debates, and the real value of human life.
A coming-of-age narrative that turns basic formulas into a complex study worthy of everyone’s attention. Laura Linney and Nico Parker deliver performances so authentically human that it will be difficult to hold back the tears.
It’s the best film of 2024 to date."
