So I Sleepwalk in Broad Daylight is a curious documentary that delves into the life and death of Spanish poet Federico Garcia Lorca, all through a unique lens. Directed by Hubert Sauper, the film employs an unusual narrative style, where Daniel adopts the persona of 'death'—a female figure, which is quite striking. The atmosphere is contemplative, almost dreamlike, as it shifts between personal reflections and broader cultural commentary. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the viewer to absorb the weight of Lorca's legacy. There’s a rawness to the performances that really captures the essence of mourning and memory, making this film stand out among other documentaries. It’s definitely a piece that invites multiple viewings, as each layer seems to reveal something different.
