Come saltano i pesci

About This Movie

So, 'Come saltano i pesci' feels like a deep dive into the murky waters of human emotion. The pacing is quite contemplative, allowing moments to breathe, which might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it really draws you into the characters' struggles. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, but that really suits the drama unfolding. I noticed how the practical effects are minimal yet effective; they really kept the focus on performances. Speaking of which, the acting is raw and earnest—definitely makes the whole experience feel grounded. It’s distinctive in how it tackles themes of isolation and connection without being overtly dramatic. Kind of a hidden gem, if you ask me.
