Primer Round (2018) is this quiet exploration of a couple at a restaurant, their conversation thick with tension and unspoken truths. The whole vibe is unsettling, it’s like watching a slow burn unravel. You get this sense of claustrophobia even in the open space of the restaurant. The pacing is deliberate, almost agonizingly slow, which heightens the emotional stakes. They’re stuck in their own narratives, where neither can really break through to the other. The performances are raw, filled with that lingering mistrust that just hangs in the air. And that breaking of the fourth wall? It’s not just a gimmick, it feels like a reflection of their inner turmoil spilling out. Not your typical relationship drama, that’s for sure.
