Building Houses is an introspective documentary that dives into the emotional tapestry of Alekh’s life. At 27, he’s caught between a nomadic existence and the haunting echoes of his childhood home. The film’s pacing really allows you to linger in those memories – it’s slow, almost meditative, reflecting on family ties and the disconnection that often accompanies adulthood. The cinematography captures both the beauty of transient living and the starkness of nostalgia. There's a palpable sense of longing and separation, as Alekh navigates his identity against the backdrop of his family’s past. The performances, though unscripted, feel raw and authentic, grounding the film in real emotion, which makes it stand out in the documentary genre.
