The directorial debut of Lado Quatania (who is it?) A music video maker who has shot a couple of famous works during his career (you can Google him. I will not describe the background in detail) and decided to switch to cinema. And immediately success!
One of the techniques that the director dragged from his clips to the cinema is shooting on 16mm film. These inserts are very rare, and are made to emphasize a certain scene in the course of the narrative.
The less you know about the plot, the more interesting it is to watch the narration. I was lucky and I didn't even turn on the trailer before going to the cinema. And even during the replay, it was also interesting to watch. Filmed and played just super.
Perhaps someone will not immediately understand the ending, but, especially for such viewers, at the end everything is chewed in detail and shown. Although
The narrative of the film, by the way, jumps from the past to the future and back, which may confuse someone. That was the plan. Non-linear storytelling almost always benefits films. Especially when there are certain riddles in them.it's more interesting to guess up to just 2\3, if not in the middle.
Also, the entire timekeeping is divided into 7 chapters: it begins with the name of the profession, then 5 stages of acceptance and the final chapter duplicates the title of the film. Therefore, here you can reflect on which of the main characters goes through these 5 stages of acceptance (or maybe both), but I will not do this, because spoilers are evil!
+addition: there are as many as 3 cameos in the film! Try to get to know everyone!
