A film about grief as a rite of passage

Grief cracks your heart open.
In Just Our Heart, five women reveal how the sharpness of mourning can awaken us to our common humanity.

In Just Our Heart director Maartje Nevejan explores the profound journey of grief and how grieving can lead to transformation, through the eyes of five women who work with the theme of grief. 

Each of these women dedicates her life to helping others navigate the turbulent waters of personal and ecological grief using ancient and contemporary rituals.

This is a film that doesn’t offer answers—it invites participation in something older than language: ritual as a way of relating to loss, and as a method of resistance.

Just Our Heart refuses the neat aesthetics of healing as an endpoint. It challenges us to ask: What if our hearts are not broken, but breaking open? And what happens when, in that rupture, we do not turn away—but stay?
