Killing Me Softly

About This Movie

Killing Me Softly (2015) is an intriguing mix of fantasy and surrealism. The film builds an atmosphere that's both dreamlike and slightly unsettling. Set against the backdrop of a Lisbon dawn, it plays with perceptions of reality and desire. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter, almost like it’s leading you through a haze. The performances have this raw intensity that keeps you engaged, with each character reflecting deeper themes of longing and connection. Practical effects are minimal, yet effective, adding to the film's ethereal quality. It's not your standard narrative, which makes it stand out in a collector's collection. You might find yourself pondering its meaning long after the credits roll.
