Counting

About This Movie

Counting is this intriguing documentary that dances through a series of vignettes, each more thought-provoking than the last. It’s not overly structured, which adds to its charm. You’ve got everything from a lone seagull in Porto to the starkness of political posters in New York. The way it captures these everyday moments, like an abandoned video shop in Cairo or cats lounging around seemingly everywhere, creates a fascinating tapestry of life. The pacing feels contemplative, inviting you to linger on each scene. You might find yourself reflecting long after, feeling that sense of connection to these snippets of reality. It’s a bit abstract, but that’s what makes it distinctive—each chapter resonates in its own way.
