Objects of My Disaffection

About This Movie

Objects of My Disaffection is a raw dive into the psyche of a young mother navigating the emotional wreckage after a breakup. It’s quite fascinating how the film uses the family’s possessions as vessels for her grief and resentment—every item becomes a symbol, a memory. The pacing is deliberate, allowing room for the audience to soak in the atmosphere of melancholy and introspection. The practical effects are minimal, which is fitting since the true effects lie in the performances. The lead carries a weight that feels very real, pulling you into her world. Not flashy or over-the-top, it’s this quiet exploration of loss that makes it stand apart. It’s a reflective piece that lingers long after the credits roll.
