Désir Pastel

About This Movie

Désir Pastel, Mathieu Rivolier's second short, is a curious blend of tension and surrealism. The atmosphere feels thick, almost palpable, as it dives into the murky waters of desire and obsession. There’s a certain languid pacing that lingers, allowing the viewer to absorb the haunting visuals and unsettling sound design. The practical effects, while not overwhelming, have a raw quality that complements the film's eerie tone. Performances are quietly compelling, often leaving an impression rather than overt theatrics. What stands out is how it navigates the complexities of human emotion, wrapped in a thriller format, creating a unique experience that lingers in the mind long after the credits roll.
