Champ de Mars offers an intriguing take on the documentary format. The film captures a young filmmaker's unique project—a thriller set in a retirement home, where the residents aren’t just passive subjects but active participants. The atmosphere is a fascinating blend of the mundane and the uncanny; you can feel the tension build as both the filmmaker and the dwellers navigate the thin line between fiction and reality. Pacing varies, with moments of quiet reflection interspersed with genuine suspense. The performances by the elderly cast are striking—their life experiences breathe authenticity into the scripted thrills. It's distinctive in how it blurs genres and challenges the typical portrayals of aging. A real curiosity in the documentary landscape.
