Maquia when the promised flower blooms mal10/26/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() The film doesn’t shy away from the unpleasantries that come with parenthood. It’s uncertain, tricky, and filled with emotional outbursts by teenagers who don’t know where to direct all their pubescent angst, things which have haunted parent-child relationships across the history of mankind itself. Maquia and Ariel’s relationship is a treat to watch develop over the course of the film. In this analogy, the mother-child relationship that lies at the heart of this film is that one exceptionally beautiful firework. The beauty of Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms is that it attempts to launch multiple fireworks into the air at once, accidentally sets off its neighbor’s fire alarm, and kills someone, but if you keep your eyes fixed on that one spot in the sky where the fireworks are the brightest, you can realistically forget all about the burning building.
