Structured and poised. Natural and meditative. The move from the first to the second half is striking and the change in setting and towards a more intimate and fluid camera was extremely satisfying.
Weerasethaku has a very interesting sensibility – especially in terms of pacing and structure. I particular was impressed by the relaxed and seamless characters within the film. I look forward to seeing more of his work this summer. I appreciate his aesthetic – it feels pure and without compromise. This is gentle movie making.
