Triangle

About This Movie

Triangle (1967) is a somewhat obscure gem that dives deep into the lives of five blacksmiths navigating the tumultuous times in Leninakan. The narrative unfolds through the eyes of the son of one blacksmith, giving it a personal touch that resonates throughout the film. You’ll really feel the weight of their friendships and struggles against the backdrop of war. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative at times, allowing the audience to soak in the atmosphere of this tight-knit community. It's not flashy, but the practical effects and performances lend a raw authenticity to the experience. The themes of loyalty and resilience are palpable, and there's a gritty realism that sticks with you long after the credits roll.

Triangle has had limited distribution over the years, making it quite scarce. Various formats exist, but many collectors seek out the original VHS for the nostalgia factor. There's an intriguing interest among collectors, especially those who appreciate cinema that captures nuanced human experiences, and it often flies under the radar in discussions about war films from this era.
