Dumb

About This Movie

Dumb (2017) is an intriguing exploration of youthful infatuation and the lengths one will go to be seen. The film captures that awkward transitional age where emotions run high and self-worth is shaky. Anton, the protagonist, grapples with his unreciprocated feelings and makes some questionable choices in his quest for acknowledgment. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing for a deeper dive into the angst and confusion that accompanies young love. There's a rawness to the performances that feels genuine, almost reminiscent of a coming-of-age indie flick. The overall tone is one of melancholy mixed with a hint of humor, creating a unique atmosphere that lingers long after the credits roll. It feels quite personal and showcases the struggle of youth in a way that’s uncommon.
