A scene from Sentimental Value 2025
Rachel Kemp
[reading the monologue from Gustav's script during the table read]

I had this kind of... crisis. I was alone in the house again, lying in my bed, crying. I know everyone lies in bed crying, but... Someone said praying isn't really talking to God. It's acknowledging the despair. To throw yourself on the ground because that's all you can do. Not unlike lying with your heart broken, thinking... "Please, call me.", "Please, forgive me.", "Please, take me back." And... [she starts tearing up] I had **** up. And I was alone and crying. And then, for the first time, I sat down on the floor... and prayed. I don't know who I said it to, but I said it out loud, "Help me, I can't do this anymore. I can't do it alone. I want a home. I want a home."
