History of Fear

How can you depict Fear on film? A huge mirror elegantly held up against American white middle class.

Beautiful film. It depicts several sides of fear in routine life. We're really quite fragile as humans, no amount of civilisation and material comfort will make fear go away, even if it's just the fear of love. Specially liked Jonathan's character Pola, frustrated by everyone else and their silly fears.

Masterful black comedy with beautiful cinematography that brings us closer to understanding the malaise of modern life even as it alienates the viewer from the characters themselves.

Gorgeous. The best kind of 'art film' - one with something to say, and a beautiful way of slowly saying it.

Disquietingly tense mood of violence & death makes me think it's natural that characters are brutally killed after one second and story continues as if nothing had happened. Dreadfully solid cinematography, Jonathan Da Rosa's face filled with soundless anger, superb direction of fear. Benjamin Naishtat becomes one of my favorite director. Terrific masterpiece.

Enigmatic yet arresting feature debut from Naishtat that is more about establishing a feeling of dread than providing a tangible story. Gated communities come under the scope here bringing to mind better films like 'La Zona'. Fair calling card that bodes well.
