Mark Webber, Nicole Elizabeth Berger, and Bodhi Palmer in The Place of No Words (2019)

"Where do we go when we die?" A question by 3-year-old Bodhi Palmer sets a real family on an imaginative adventure that explores how we cope with dying and the love, laughter, and pain we can find within it. Bodhi starring alongside his actual mother and father (Mark Webber and Teresa Palmer) and the fairy Esmeralda, played by Berger, give rare tour-de-force performances. Told through both the eyes of a father and his young son the story moves between the authentic real world and a fantasy realm filled with mythical creatures and remarkable circumstances.

Poetry and images to match

I love poetry. I love thinking and having a little bit of room to explore thoughts and ideas. That may very well help explain my appreciation for this film.

The first five minutes or so turned me off. Because I didn't understand. But I settled in and relaxed into it. I was treated to a trip of magical adventure supported by the observation of the ordinary world. I was in.

Very much not an ordinary linear film, there were moments that confused me, but then it became all too clear and beautifully executed.

I loved the characters in the movie. I loved the story. I was impressed with the persistent ability to surprise me and go beyond my expectations. Lovely little poem of a film.
