Nikita Lavretski

About This Movie

Nikita Lavretski's 2019 film is a wild ride through the chaos of adolescence, balancing the mundane with the macabre. The documentary aspect is intriguing—he takes raw, lo-fi footage of himself from childhood to his teenage years, and the editing is where the real horror lurks. It's not polished; it's rough around the edges, which adds to the unsettling vibe. Themes of violence, art, and existential dread weave in and out, creating a feeling of dislocation that’s hard to shake. The pacing might feel erratic at times, but that’s part of its charm. There’s a distinct sense of personal exploration here, making it stand out in the docu-horror realm.
