Beautiful cinematography and a Rashomon-like flashback structure frame this ethereal, touching story of three young people summoned to their mother’s deathbed. As the siblings summon the strength to assist their mother’s suicide, they relive their conflicting memories of their father’s death. As they come to terms with their grief and guilt, the weight of the past threatens to crush them. Moon on the Snow is an understated but moving film, powerfully realized by its cast and crew.
