Meaningful, aesthetically pleasing, intellectual.
But also soooo uneventful.
I don't really know where I got that idea from, but I was comparing it a lot to Midsommar and was really expecting a village revolution, traditional human sacrifice or whatever. I just kept waiting and waiting and waiting.
I guess it was because it was at the fantasy film Festival and I thought It was horror? Also no clue why this is fsk16.
I have no clue of cameras but this looked really cool and retro and grainy. That iconic flickering of the screen paired with that music and those landscapes and really powerful imagery is really cool to see. But it's also all you get, because as cool as the plot is to interpret and spend time on, it's really not captivating at all.
First I was critical of the voice over of Walter's thoughts but I got used to it quickly and it was done really well and made the story go deeper.
The problem of loyalty and relative power dynamics was really well portrayed. People changed really quickly over that short time span. You had multiple and also changing ingroup-outgroup-problems.
I was a big fan of that short time where Walter and Mr "Quill" had this thing going on where they were mapping the land and they really embraced nature's and art's beauty. Shout-out to that herbarium in that notebook of his.
Really good shift when that cousin arrived and immediately master Kent got really submissive and they made the village real institutionalized and capitalistic real fast.
Also liked the moral questions this brings about that cartograph and his responsibilities and him becoming a scapegoat.
