It's Gonna Get Worse is a gritty portrait of rebellion in a stifling environment. The film dives deep into the psyche of Olin, a young man navigating life after a stint in a mental hospital. Set against the backdrop of 1970s Soviet-occupied Czechoslovakia, the atmosphere is thick with tension and despair, yet there's a raw energy in the underground scene he inhabits. The pacing is deliberate, almost languid, mirroring Olin's internal struggles. The performances are notably authentic, capturing the disillusionment of youth amidst oppressive circumstances. Themes of escapism through drugs and music resonate throughout, providing a stark contrast to the bleakness of the regime. It’s a film that leans heavily on mood rather than traditional storytelling, making it a distinctive piece for any serious collector.
