Linda is running on fumes, and somehow life keeps adding new problems like it’s a checklist. Her child has a mysterious illness, her husband is absent, and there’s also a missing person situation brewing in the background. That alone would be enough to crack most humans. But then there’s her therapist, and the relationship goes from “helpful professional” to something clearly more hostile, as if therapy starts reflecting back all the dread instead of dissolving it. Meanwhile, Linda tries to keep her life and career together, even as everything around her collapses. It’s tense, awkward, and weirdly sharp, like watching someone argue with the universe and getting out-debated. Yeah, it’s draining. That’s also why it’s good.
----------
Linda steht kurz vor dem kompletten Zusammenbruch. Um sie herum fällt das Leben auseinander, aber sie soll bitte trotzdem funktionieren. Ihr Kind ist mysteriös krank, der Ehemann ist nicht da, irgendwo läuft zudem eine vermisste Person herum. Und als wäre das nicht schon genug, wird auch noch die Beziehung zu ihrer Therapeutin zunehmend… nun ja, feindselig. Nicht dieses gemütliche „Wir reden mal alles aus“-Ding, eher: Was stimmt hier wirklich, und warum hört Linda nicht auf, sich selbst die falschen Antworten zu geben? Der Film macht aus Alltagspanik etwas Unbehagliches, ziemlich witzlos ehrlich. 92% bei Rotten Tomatoes klingen, als hätten alle denselben Kopfdruck gehabt.

Transkript
00:01Mommy?
00:03The bathroom has water in it.
00:05Come quickly!
00:10I try very hard to be in control of her and everything,
00:13but it may as well not even be there at all.
00:17I don't like how it feels on my side.
00:19Just stay there, OK?
00:20Just hold on.
00:21What deep is it?
00:23Are we going to die?
00:24Is the house going to fall on top of us?
00:27Mommy!
00:27Hey!
00:28Hey!
00:29Hey, we just got home and you would not believe...
00:35We are out of time.
00:36I have another patient coming, so...
00:37Wait, now?
00:38What about the 10-minute warning?
00:40Yeah, I just wasn't paying attention.
00:41You didn't respond to the email that I sent you about my dream.
00:44I don't respond to my client's dream emails.
00:49I know you have a lot on your plate, but she's getting better
00:52and the rest of it is totally temporary.
00:55You need to be a team as a whole.
00:57I know.
00:57The problem with that logic, though, is that I'm not a housewife.
01:00I work, too.
01:06I can see you now.
01:14You've missed the last few weeks of family sessions.
01:16I told you what happened.
01:17Our entire ceiling fell down and we're living out of the hotel.
01:21Yes on these, but no on the wine.
01:23But it isn't even two.
01:24It's 158.
01:26By the time I ring these up, it will be past two.
01:31You're crazy pants.
01:32I was going to partake in surfing the web for some things that I'm into.
01:36What kind of stuff?
01:40I'm supposed to know how to fix this.
01:41I'm supposed to know how to fix her.
01:43What is it you think it's your job to fix?
01:47I'm asking you what I'm supposed to do.
01:50Can you hear me?
01:51I would like you to get a good night's sleep.
01:56Whatever.
01:57This isn't supposed to be what it's like.
01:59This isn't it.
02:00This can't be it.
02:05Everything is under control.
02:07Ha!
