This short is incredible, it tells such a beautiful story of a mother and daughter. You can tell it comes from a place of love and emotion, the message behind it is so heartbreakingly true. It's been treated with such care and passion and truly encapsulates how it feel to be so far away from the people you love. The letters play such a key part on the meaning, and an important message of never forgetting who you are regardless of the relationships and friendships you find yourself in. I hope to see more of Stefania Spampinato behind the camera. This truly is Stefania's love letter from herself to her Sicily and her mamma <3.

The directional debut of Stefania Spampinato has left audiences stunned with her emotional and heartfelt story about her deep relationship with her loving mother. This short movie is an incredible tribute to the bond between mother and daughter, and the journey of grief that follows the loss of a parent.

The film is beautifully shot, with a stunning visual style that perfectly captures not only the mood and tone of the story but also the atmosphere of the little Sicilian town. Stefania brings her own personal experience and emotions to the story, creating an incredibly moving and heartfelt short movie that will leave viewers in tears.

As a director, Stefania has done a commendable job of conveying the deep and complex emotions that come with the loss of a parent.

Overall, this directional debut is a masterpiece that must not be missed. It's a poignant and honest representation of the love between mother and daughter, and the power of grief in shaping our lives. Stefania Spampinato has proven herself as a talented director, and we can't wait to see what she has in store for us in the future.

Bravissima!!!

This short was beautifully done. It's about a love that is so incredibly hard to put into words. The love between a mother and daughter is so special. The message to never be stagnant and always go after your dreams it home to me. To never let anyone in the way of what you want out of your life. To not let anyone be your anchor and hold you back. The vulnerability that this film took makes it that much more emotional. The camera work and the framing was phenomenally done. The film was overall amazing to watch. I love seeing Stefania Spampinato behind the camera. I can't wait to see what else she has in store! Please if you have the time give this film a watch! You won't regret it! Beautifully done.

It's an amazing short. The writing is incredible and everything about it is so beautifully made. It connects directly with the public thanks to an unreal camera work that makes you feel part of the story. Even though I've seen people discredit the photography, I think it is one of the main reasons why the short feels so personal. The way everything is shown helps you understand the relationship between Stefania and her mother on a deeper level. It shows you how little and grown Stefania saw the world, and that is a very difficult thing to do in a 10 min short. It is truly magical, moving and heart-warming.

This short film is nothing short of extraordinary. From beginning to end, I was invested in every little detail we were offered. The story is told with such raw honesty and it evokes so many emotions watching the tale of mother and daughter. The attention to every detail, the nuances in the story telling and the personal voiceovers demonstrate that this project was a labour of love. There is a vulnerability to the whole film that invites viewers in to fully hear the story that is being told, as well as watch it unfold. Messages from the letters are not only key to depicting the passion behind this short, but they stick with you even after it's over. There are so many lessons hidden in every crevice of this film and each time you find yourself learning something new. This project was described as a love letter and it only becomes more apparent when watching it why this is the case.

Had I not known before, I never would have guessed that this was a directional debut from Stefania Spampinato and I am very much looking forward to seeing what other masterpieces she creates behind the camera. Brava!
