Circles

About This Movie

So, 'Circles' is this intense documentary that really digs into the psyche of Susanna, a doctor who’s just come back from the chaos of the Central African Republic. You really feel the heaviness, like she’s carrying the weight of her experiences. It’s not your typical documentary – it's raw and emotional with a kind of pacing that mirrors her internal struggle. The way it contrasts her memories with her current life in Sweden is striking. There’s no flashy editing or gimmicks, just real feelings and real moments. And Susanna’s performance? It’s deeply personal and authentic; you can sense her conflict and dislocation. It’s a film that stays with you, making you ponder the effects of war long after it ends.
