It's Breathing

About This Movie

So, 'It's Breathing' is this fascinating documentary that really takes you through the backstreets of Zaporizhzhia. It’s not your typical doc; the way it captures the mundane - like those stark residential buildings and the haunting factory ruins - is pretty striking. The director seems to find beauty in what many would overlook, turning grey into a canvas of sorts. There’s a slow, meditative pacing that lets you soak in the atmosphere. It’s like you’re seeing the world through a kaleidoscope, where every turn reveals deeper emotions. The absence of a known director adds a layer of mystery to it, which feels fitting for the themes of longing and desolation. A real gem for those into atmospheric storytelling.
