Carnets 88 is quite the intriguing documentary. Directed by Sylvain Yonnet, it dives deep into the murky waters of French neo-fascist circles during the 2010s, using ten notebooks as its unique narrative device. The tone is both chilling and reflective, capturing the unsettling atmosphere of the time without sensationalism. It’s not just about the ideologies, but the human stories behind them. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing viewers to absorb the weight of the subjects discussed. The practical effects are minimal – it relies heavily on interviews and real footage, lending authenticity. It’s distinctive for its grounded approach, showcasing how ordinary lives intersect with extremist beliefs. Definitely a thought-provoking piece worth revisiting.
