We At Her is a really raw and haunting documentary from 1995 that dives into the unsettling journey of a woman grappling with mental illness. The tone is heavy, almost suffocating at times, which perfectly reflects her descent. It's not flashy; instead, it opts for this gritty realism that feels so personal. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing you to linger on her struggles and moments of clarity. What’s striking is the use of practical effects to visualize her mental state, which adds this layer of visceral experience. Performances are unpolished but deeply affecting, leaving an imprint that stays with you. It’s distinctive for its willingness to explore discomfort without the usual dramatization you see in more commercial fare.
