Incendies

Incendies is a masterpiece film by Denis Villeneuve, filled with bitterness. The story is actually very simple. It’s about a twins who searching for their father, who is still alive, and a brother. This search is their mother’s last request before she passed away. That’s it. But trust me. "the less you know, the better." Watching this film without knowing anything about it makes the experience 10 times better. This was my first time watching Incendies completely blind, not reading the sinopsis, no hesitation just pressing play. And it really worked. The visuals feel raw and real, but also beautiful in a quiet way. Sometimes I even forgot how tragic and sensitive the story actually is. The narration flows so well that it keeps you guessing the whole time. And in the end, it leaves you shocked, uncomfortable, and chilled. AT THE SAME TIME.
