So, 'Seven Seals' from 1989 is this fascinating documentary, produced at the International Video Colony in Ohrid, Macedonia. It's got this hauntingly reflective tone, immersing you in the lives and struggles of its subjects. The pacing feels intentionally slow, allowing thoughts to linger. I think what stands out is the atmosphere; it’s almost meditative in a way, with raw, unpolished interviews that dig deep into existential themes. It contrasts starkly with the more commercial stuff from the same era. The practical effects are minimal but effective, really relying on the power of its subjects’ performances. And screenings at the Alternative Film/Video Belgrade Festival in 2014 gave it a new life, introducing it to a fresh audience. Definitely one to ponder over a quiet evening.
