Julie

About This Movie

So, 'Julie' is an interesting piece from 2020, right? It dives into the complexities of human connection during a time when everything feels so disconnected. The main character, a callboy, navigates this strange new world with a sort of detached intimacy, performing cybersex while caring for a house. It’s darkly atmospheric, almost suffocating at times, which really captures the essence of the pandemic. The pacing—slow and contemplative—allows you to really sit with the feelings of nostalgia and longing, especially in those flashbacks to moments shared with Julie, a trans woman. The performances are raw and vulnerable, creating a hauntingly intimate experience that lingers long after it’s over. Not something you see every day, that's for sure.
