Lesser of Two Evils

About This Movie

Lesser of Two Evils is quite fascinating in its approach to Eastern European life, captured through a unique animation style. The stories feel raw, almost like they come straight from daily life, and yet they morph into these absurd scenarios that really challenge your perception of the mundane. The pacing is a bit uneven, which might throw some viewers off, but it adds to the surreal atmosphere. The practical effects are a standout, lending a tactile quality to the animation that enhances the storytelling. You can really sense the influence of Attila Hazai’s writing; there’s a biting humor intertwined with a sense of melancholy that’s really distinctive. It's a film that doesn't shy away from uncomfortable truths, and that’s what makes it engaging.
