What Convergence reinforced for me, more than anything, is simply the overwhelming gratitude I have for every essential worker who took my temperature, bagged my groceries and drove me to my desired destination over the past twenty months.
It’s a humanistic endeavor, essentially, out of which emerge memorable people doing heroic work in inglorious places.
The critical edge of the film feels blunted by platitudes (“Opportunities are born from crises,” says Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the World Health Organization), not to mention the exhaustion viewers will likely feel in reliving early memories of the still-ongoing pandemic for nearly two hours.
When “Convergence” feels rushed for trying to squeeze in a global snapshot, its impact is diluted.
Even in terms of its attempted emotional cross-section of the pandemic, Convergence spreads its net too wide.
