‘Profesión: vivir’ is a gritty exploration of urban existence and the crushing weight of unfulfilled dreams. The film dives deep into the psyche of a man approaching his fifties, navigating a concrete jungle that feels increasingly suffocating. The tone is heavy, capturing that existential dread many of us feel but rarely articulate. The pacing can be a bit unorthodox, with moments of stark silence that speak volumes, allowing the viewer to really sit with the character's frustrations. Performances are raw, almost painful to watch at times, which adds to the authenticity. It's distinctive in its portrayal of isolation, and the practical effects—like using the urban landscape as a character itself—add depth to the narrative. It’s quite a journey, really.
