About This Movie

The pacing feels deliberate, mirroring Franz's stagnation as he faces both physical and emotional turmoil. The interactions with Peter, the retired doctor, offer moments of introspection and gentle guidance. Performances are raw, especially from the leads, capturing a profound sense of vulnerability.
