The Invisible Thread (Original title: Il filo invisibile)

The Invisible Thread (Original title: Il filo invisibile) - Movie Review

This is a story about a teenage boy making a documentary for school about his family. He has two dads and uses the film to show all the difficulties these two men faced throughout the last 20 years.

It is a sweet movie, in a sweet language - Italian.

Social Awareness

Fortunately, the LGBTQ community issues in many different areas are nowadays more often shown in shows and movies. So why is this one different? Because it is not about them, it is about the boy.

How would you feel if you could not be, legally speaking, son of both your parents? Why should technicalities define your family? This kid shows resilience to deal with so many things he shouldn’t have to.

The documentary for school is super sweet. Perhaps because of that, the movie looks so thoughtful. They were able to deal with a social complex theme with humor and naturalness.

Drama

The film is a drama, but you might forget that at some point because it has so many funny lines and hilarious scenes. That makes everything lighter because it could have been a very dark movie if you think it through.

We are talking about a rough divorce, full of accusations and grief. The petty vengeance associated with it is very ugly but, unfortunately, quite common. The pain in the adults and the kid is scarily relatable to many of us.

Yet, they did it in such a funny way that it’s delicious to watch. The best comic scene to me is in the hospital. When the old man in the next bed is observing and trying to follow the complications of that unusual family. His facial expressions are the best.

Light and funny movie

I liked the movie very much. It is light, funny, and worth watching. It talks about connection, love, and family in the real sense of the word. We all make mistakes, and we can solve them if we genuinely love each other.

It is a happy ending movie without feeling like a cliche. It makes you feel good.

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...

Review: Billie Eilish: Unfiltered – A Shallow, Soulless Recap Pretending to Be a Documentary

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5) If you're expecting Billie Eilish: Unfiltered to offer an intimate look into the life, artistry, or creative process of one of Gen Z’s most influential pop icons, prepare to be disappointed. This so-called documentary barely scratches the surface, delivering little more than a dry, lifeless rundown of Billie Eilish 's discography, awards, and chart performances. At best, it's a glorified Wikipedia entry with background music. At worst, it’s a wasted hour of potential. Unfiltered? The documentary lacks narrative depth, personal insight, or any meaningful exploration of who Billie Eilish is beyond her resume. Rather than providing behind-the-scenes footage, raw interviews, or critical commentary, Unfiltered relies on a monotonous narrator reeling off her achievements like items on a grocery list. There are occasional quotes from Billie herself, but they’re so brief and context-free they feel like filler material. For a documentary claiming to be “u...
