Disconnect

About This Movie

Disconnect (2023) dives deep into the complexities of modern romance, particularly in the realm of social media. The story explores how an influencer couple navigates their relationship when one decides to step back, deleting their online presence. It’s a slow burn, focusing on the quiet moments of doubt and connection, which gives it an almost intimate atmosphere. The performances are raw, capturing that tension between public personas and private lives. There's a certain realism in the dialogue, and the pacing allows for a contemplative viewing. Practical effects, like the use of minimal sets to emphasize isolation, add to the film’s grounded feel. It's a thoughtful examination of love and identity in our hyper-connected world, which is something you don't see every day.
