Let Me In (2016) weaves a somber yet poignant narrative around the refugee experience, set against the backdrop of America. There’s a rawness to the performances that really pulls you in, especially when exploring themes of survival and humanity. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments to breathe, which contrasts sharply with the urgency of the situation. Olinger's direction and writing bring forth a haunting atmosphere, almost reminiscent of a fever dream at times, where hope and despair intertwine. The practical effects, though not the focus, support the emotional weight without overshadowing the story. It's definitely distinctive—a unique lens on a pressing issue that many might overlook.
