damn ma is it that serious 😭

65

A void forever entrapped, lingering for decades forward and past, and we're stuck trying to climb out of it.

🎭 This is amazing 🎭

Hoop-tober, #29:

A man or, better yet, a symbol, hides in a tree holding on for dear life. Naturally, we sympathize with this symbol due to its condition. It is only after the symbol is brought down to the ground, and then placed in a "dormant" state far below the ground, that we consider this man, this symbol -- this ideology -- may be representative of opposite what we thought, and its potential rise back to the surface could be an apocalyptically devastatingly affair. If one doesn't bury a body completely, it has all the likelihood in the world to dig its way out from the subterranean basement of sectarianism.

Clearly Jonathan Glazer is going through a phase as a Harmony Korine wannabe. The masked psychos remind me of Umshini Wam and instead of Trash Humpers, we get some tree humping. The stunning cinematography by Tom Debenham proved that all that glitters is not gold. Stylized psychosis isn't my thing - unless we're talking about an Andrzej Wajda film. Which watching one right now seems like a very good idea.

Genuinely quite tense and incredibly well made.

How can something so short be so good you ask? Watch it

The masks make it for me.

Glazer has crafted a nightmare that embodies the very real one we are living through. Quite an inspired work, an example of the short film as its own art form.

Really good, but deserves to be longer.

Potent and mystifying. Is it everything or nothing?
Analysis aside, on a purely visual and visceral level, it’s damn cool.

incredible! no short film has ever blown me away, but this one comes close.

The Purge meets Free Solo. In Hell.

Faceless nightmares...
