A nominee for the 2022 Venice Horizons Award, a category I haven\u2019t seen many films from, so I was happy to check out a nominee this year. I would consider this an \u201cart\u201d film; it was shot in black and white, telling the story of forbidden love, reminiscent of Romeo & Juliet.<\/p>\n

Director Pippo Mezzapesa has released several documentaries and short films, this being his foray into feature films. It was a beautiful example of what can be done when care is taken to show a movie the way the director envisions it.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t a film for everyone, and it made me think of the recent release ROMA (yes, because it was also in black and white, and not for any other reason.) That film had a passionate fanbase, but it wasn’t for you; if you didn\u2019t like the style or the slow burn, you knew it almost instantly.<\/p>\n

While I\u2019m traditionally not a fan of slow-burn art films out in the wild, there was something special here. Maybe because it\u2019s my third-ever screener for the Venice Film Festival, perhaps because I was a little let down by the previous one, but even beyond that, it was so moving. The images on the screen painted a picture that made you feel more of the movie than if you were just watching it.<\/p>\n

The performances in the film were almost hypnotic, and I often caught myself in a trance-like state. Initially, I thought that may have been because of the slower pace, but the further into the film I got, the more I realized it was because of these characters that were telling this subdued story.<\/p>\n
