🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a stark character study, relying on a grim, naturalistic realism and a sense of quiet observation. It explores the chasm between performative cheer and profound inner decay, where each drink deepens the protagonist's disconnect.

What lingers after viewing is the haunting image of innocence adrift in a world of adult failure, a poignant and unsettling portrait of collapse. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Simon Hesera

Watch alone with strong black coffee on a gray afternoon, prepared for its slow, uncompromising rhythm.
