This film powerfully encompasses the feeling of loving someone who isn't good for you. It shows how when you care deeply for someone, platonic or familial, it can be easy to forgive them, no matter what they've done. Mourning Dove is about love and loss and tells a beautiful story that captures these feelings completely.
