capturing tension and relevance

Hearing that this short film won the Palme d'Or immediately piqued my interest. After watching the director's brief video introduction, my curiosity grew even more. The film is based on a true story that unfolded over 20 minutes, yet the movie itself runs for only 13 minutes. I believe they missed an opportunity by not matching the film's duration to the real event, which could have heightened the tension and allowed us to experience the emotions more deeply.

The topic of the film is extremely important and more relevant than ever, resonating with the current social and political climate. It's a powerful reminder of the real-world issues we face today, making it not just a piece of entertainment, but also a critical conversation starter. The cinematography is stunning, and the cast delivers exceptional performances. However, the sound mixing could have been better; there were moments where the sound had the potential to elevate the film to another level. Despite this, the film succeeds in leaving a lasting impact, both visually and emotionally.
