What show or movie did you come to understand as a meditation on suffering and loss? (sopuli.xyz)

Not quite sure how well they fit, but the movies that come to my mind are: Grave of the Fireflies, Requiem for a Dream and Enter the Void.

They are overtly about different themes, but suffering and loss play big roles in each. Great movies that you'll probably only going to want to watch once.
