About This Movie
‘Eine Krankheit wie ein Gedicht’ dives into a very raw and unsettling reality. The documentary captures Jelena Ilić's personal struggle as she navigates the complex relationship with her father, who’s been in a forensic psychiatric facility for years due to drug-induced psychosis. The atmosphere is dense with tension and unease, as you feel both her love and fear for him. Pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative at times, allowing the viewer to sit with the discomfort of potential relapse and the longing for reconciliation. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on real life and raw emotion. Performances are brutally honest; you see the weight of family dynamics laid bare, which makes it a distinctive exploration of societal perceptions of mental health.
