Chove is an intriguing piece, really. The film has this palpable, heavy atmosphere that lingers long after screening. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, which can be a divisive choice, but it serves the themes of introspection and solitude quite well. The practical effects are minimal yet effective, adding a layer of authenticity to the raw emotions on display. The performances carry a weight to them, grounding the narrative in a very human experience. It’s this understated approach that makes Chove distinctive; it doesn’t rely on flashy moments but instead invites you to sit with discomfort and reflection. It was exhibited at Cinemateca do MAM, which adds an interesting context, given the venue's focus on art-house cinema.
