I wanted this movie to be 10 hours long

What a beauty! For once, I was so drawn to a movie that I never wanted it to end. If you are into fast-paced action with lots of vituperation, this is not for you. But if you like your movies to be profound, slow-paced, insightful, and thought-provoking, you will enjoy this movie. Also, it has none of the heartbreaks that you see in a movie like this.

Veronica is a newly-minted medical doctor, undergoing her residency. She shares her life with her aging father, on whom she dotes, the way he must have done for her when she was young. The beauty of the relationship between father and daughter alone is sufficient to love this movie.

She secures a psychiatry consultation in a public hospital, but she finds herself drawn to her patients, experiencing many of the same doubts, insecurities and existential malaise which plague her patients. Her love life also suffers to the same extent; she can't seem to find her footing.

Having drifted for a while, she finally catches a break which allows her to reset her life, her love and her family, and finally everything has meaning.
