You Are Alone
“When your darkest moment comes to light” – the tagline to this ultra unknown micro-budget film. An unflinching and sobering drama exploring the effects of loneliness on individuals who attempt to relieve their loneliness, even if that is only for one hour. This is why I love films so much, why I will spend hours upon hours watching films that not many have even heard of. “You Are Alone” is quite possibly the very definition of unknown with around 500 ratings on IMDb, and 200, or so on Letterboxd. Like Tape (2001) in that it is set entirely in a motel room, except for several brief flashbacks. Set in the mid-2000s, the story revolves around high school senior who works as a prostitute in her spare time, and an older middle aged, depressed neighbor.

“You Are Alone” will explore the human psyche in greater depth, with spellbinding performances from Jessica Bohl and Richard Brundage, and their chemistry is just outstanding. The film will explore their characters lives, delving in and out, of their many, and numerous sorrows. You would assume that the film would be about sex, but instead focuses on two lonely individuals who seek a meaningful connection. While it tantalizes the act of sex, it very much focuses on the complexity of the characters in the world in which they are living in.

It perfectly encapsulates the edgy, melancholic beauty that you would associate in such a setting. I felt like I was there witnessing the interaction between them, for every sentence, every question, every response was a mortal struggle. The fight for existence itself. It was exhilarating.
