Things We Don't Talk About

About This Movie

Things We Don't Talk About is a quiet yet intense exploration of trauma and isolation. The film centers around Edvin, a thirteen-year-old grappling with the aftermath of a car accident. The atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating at times, as it delves deep into his psyche. The pacing is deliberate—moments of stillness allowing the audience to feel Edvin's struggle. The performances are raw, especially the lead, who captures the essence of a young boy wrestling with fears and emotions he can't articulate. It’s distinct in how it handles the aftermath of tragedy, steering clear of melodrama while embracing the uncomfortable silence that often follows such events. The cinematography complements the narrative, using shadows and light to reflect Edvin's internal battles.
