Op Gepaste Afstand

About This Movie

So, 'Op Gepaste Afstand' is this interesting little gem that captures the strange atmosphere of lockdown in 2020. Set in Tilburg, it’s not your average rom-com. The pacing is relaxed, almost contemplative, as two neighbors wander through eerily empty streets. You feel that weight of isolation, yet there’s a warmth in their budding connection amidst the chaos. The performances are quite natural, almost improvisational at times, lending a sense of authenticity. The way they explore their city, finding beauty in deserted places while also grappling with their own loneliness, it’s really striking. Plus, the practical effects of the empty city create a stark backdrop that enhances the narrative flow. Quite a unique take on love and human connection during a bizarre time.
