The Meeting

About This Movie

So, 'The Meeting' from 2019 is one of those films that really plays with your mind. The whole vibe is quite ethereal, almost dreamlike. You have these two characters who come together in this surreal space, and it’s like they’re navigating their own internal conflicts as much as they are each other. The pacing can feel slow, but it’s deliberate, giving you time to soak in the atmosphere. The practical effects are quite minimal, yet they serve the film’s motifs well, creating a sense of dislocation. The performances are understated, which really allows those subtler themes of connection and isolation to shine through. It’s distinctive in how it refuses to spoon-feed you, leaving a lot to interpretation.
