Our take

An inventively reflexive work of art made during the global pandemic, Everything is Cinema delicately captures a couple’s rising resentment as they remain stuck indoors. Told from the point of view of the husband, this affecting drama is a piercing examination of the male gaze and toxic masculinity.
