Director Ava Duvernay with a deft and assured touch helms I WILL FOLLOW, a bitter-sweet drama focusing on a niece, played impressively by Salli Richardson-Whitfield dealing with the aftermath of her aunt’s death.
Low key and understated, it’s wonderfully acted with an impressive cast, as a parade of characters come to give and take, in the wake of passing. Definitely worth a look, and as of this writing you can still catch it on streaming for a couple more days.

It’s a subtle, understated film, but one worth having. Grade: B.
