Bellbird

After community stalwart Beth dies unexpectedly, her taciturn husband Ross and morose adult son Bruce find themselves ill-equipped to sustain the family dairy farm, much less an extended conversation with one another. Struggling to cope with her absence, the two men slowly begin to settle into a comfortable new routine, one that promises to sustain them both. Celebrating the idiosyncratic and unhurried rhythms of small-town life, this heartfelt, humorous drama offers a charming look at love and loss. (Chicago International Film Festival)
