What Remains of Edith Finch

Two hours that hit harder than most three-hour films.

Giant Sparrow's two-hour walking simulator about a cursed family tells more emotionally complex stories than most filmmakers manage in a career. Each family member's death is told through a different gameplay mechanic — the cannery worker's daydream sequence alone is worth the price of admission. It won a BAFTA for best game and it deserved one for best short film too.
