The performances are understated yet impactful, making you feel a range of emotions without over-explaining. You get a real sense of the cultural backdrop, and the practical effects, though subtle, serve the narrative rather than overshadow it. There’s something about the pacing that feels deliberate, almost meditative, which sets it apart from more mainstream fare.
