Pelano!

About This Movie

Pelano! is an intriguing slice of science fiction that weaves together a unique atmosphere. Directed by Calebe Lopes, the film has this almost claustrophobic feel, thanks to its slow but deliberate pacing. Raquel's drip is more than just a physical ailment; it symbolizes a deeper struggle, one that feels oddly relatable. The practical effects here are subtle yet effective, adding layers to the narrative without overshadowing the performances. Lopes manages to capture a raw, almost gritty tone that lingers. You can feel the tension building, and when it all seems ready to melt away, it’s like a release of sorts. It's distinctive in its approach, creating a moody experience rather than just a straightforward plot.
