Beautiful
flaneur_peintre16 August 2023
One of the most extraordinarily beautiful films I've seen, hopefully a prelude to a long and glorious career in filmmaking. Understated simplicity of characters combined with lush, gorgeous cinematography makes this a special film, and one id love to see again. Grateful to have seen this in Locarno and i hope I gets a wider release. The location and events bring something new to the world, a sort of poetic recalibration. First film in a while where I was totally transfixed, took notes, and felt inspired. I'd be curious to know more about these characters, but their poetic portrayal forced me to look inside for parallels in my own lived experiences.
