About This Movie

#selfie (2016) offers an intriguing lens into modern relationships, capturing the fleeting moments of intimacy between a couple in Berlin. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the audience to soak in the tension that builds as the story unfolds. It’s a raw exploration of connection and disconnection, told through the lens of a mobile phone – quite literally. The use of practical effects here is minimal, but that enhances the film’s authenticity, spotlighting the performances. Both leads bring a palpable chemistry that shifts from lightheartedness to growing unease, making the eventual climax of their relationship feel almost inevitable. It’s a film that reflects our obsession with documentation and how it often impacts our real lives.
