Recognised only by your people, forced to survive every single minute. Alive, but still struggling to truly live. The film shows divisions between classes and people without ever overdoing it. The black-and-white visuals strip everything down, making the atmosphere feel even harsher and more real. There’s nothing to distract you from the tension, the anger, and that suffocating sense of being stuck. At this point, anything I say about this film would just be repeating what’s already been said. Films like this remind me that I’m not even close to being a cinephile. I have so many feelings about it, yet I can’t find the right words to express them. I think even if I knew every language in the world, I still wouldn’t be able to explain the way it made me feel.
