i dreamt of this, Esther is a raw exploration of a young woman's struggle with autonomy against the backdrop of familial control. Nicole Santiago creates a tense atmosphere, balancing drama with elements of a psychological thriller that keeps you engaged. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the weight of her mother's influence to simmer, leading to moments that feel uncomfortably real. The performances are striking, particularly the lead, who captures the fragility of her character’s psyche. Practical effects subtly enhance the narrative, portraying the physical and emotional toll of her battles. It’s distinct in its unflinching portrayal of mental health, making it a thought-provoking watch, even if it’s not an easy one.
