But when their separation happens to coincide with the Russian invasion two countries away, these two very differently scaled crises wind up jointly defining a disorienting phase of family life for high-flying media exec Marija (Žygimantė Elena Jakštaitė) and slacking screenwriter Vytas (Marius Repšys). And while a whole country’s anguish may put their problems in perspective, that doesn’t necessarily make those problems easier to solve. A drily witty, subtly searing comedy from writer-director Andrius Blaževičius, “How to Divorce During the War” is both empathetic and surgical as it examine...

‘Take Me Home’ Review: Sundance Award-Winner Paints an Intimate Portrait of a Family in Crisis

And yet, writer-director Liz Sargent’s debut feature — which premiered in the U.S. Dramatic competition at the Sundance Film Festival and won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award — is suffused with love: the director’s love for her own sibling, who stars in the film, but also the tenacious and so often under-appreciated love of caregiving. The family drama “Take Me Home” is a not an easy watch and (arguably harder than it needs to be). Yet, how could a fil...
