The Flock

About This Movie

The Flock, from 2017, unfolds in this dimly lit bar, a setting that really captures a sense of confinement. It’s all about three characters—each seemingly from different walks of life—who find themselves tangled in a conversation about a securities scam that’s pulled the rug out from under them. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for pauses that let tension build, and you can feel the weight of their shared frustration in the air. The performances are raw, almost uncomfortable at times, which just adds to the film's atmosphere. It’s less about flashy effects and more about the grit of their reality, making it distinctive in its own somber way. Definitely a film that leaves you thinking long after the credits roll.
