FOREIGN AFFAIRS

About This Movie

FOREIGN AFFAIRS, directed by Yotam Goren, employs the tactile quality of 16mm film to capture the urban pulse of New York while being crafted in Berlin. It's this duality that gives it a layered texture, oscillating between calm and chaos. The animation style, with its sharp, almost disjointed cuts, pairs intriguingly with an unsettling soundscape. Harrowing ambient sounds weave through moments of stillness, creating a jarring yet captivating rhythm. The themes of disconnection and the search for identity in a sprawling cityscape resonate deeply, inviting viewers to ponder their own experiences. The pacing feels deliberate, making every flicker of motion seem intentional, a dance between vulnerability and high-stakes intensity. A distinctive piece that lingers in both mind and atmosphere.
