'Sketch' Review: A Creative Fantasy Adventure Explores Grief and Loss

Sketch is a wonderfully creative fantasy adventure that uses kooky and disturbing monsters to illustrate a family's inability to process grief. Writer/director Seth Worley crafts a remarkable feature debut that artfully blends darkness and heart with a thoughtful lesson: Losing a cherished loved one is a devastating experience, but especially difficult for children when adults and authority figures don't address the issue. Their hope of avoiding further pain exacerbates the crisis, which leads to anger, resentment, and most destructively, blame for what's happened. We can't bury our feelings, but must face them head on to truly come to terms with sorrow.
