Still Life

One of the most heartbreaking things that happens quietly around us, over and over again. Only those directly trapped in it know how hollow and painful it feels.

I prefer calling it “Lifeless Life” instead of the mistranslated Still Life, which misses the point entirely.

The film delivers suffering even when it’s invisible. Emotions are so muted they feel truer than dialogue, and the lack of reaction alone shows how helpless the situation is.

Cruel? Yes. But life is cruel and we let it be, as long as it’s not our turn yet.

A life measured in passing trains, a love spoken through silence, a home built on repetition. Stillness becomes their language, routine their only companion. And when the gate finally closes for the last time, what’s left is not an ending, but the quiet weight of being unseen.

I think a total of 15 sentences were said through this whole movie and that is an understatement. Hardly anything happens through the first hour and the only thing that is happening is watching an elderly couple having tea. The ending is sad but that is about it. Incredibly simple, but also incredibly boring.

Crudo y Directo, una gran forma de disfrazar la locura que acaba de cometer.
