When My Knife Strikes You is quite the haunting piece from Papić. It's not just a documentary; it's a raw exploration of violence that almost feels like a fever dream. The pacing is deliberately slow, which amplifies the tension and gives you time to digest the unsettling interviews. The way the film juxtaposes the mundane life of Yugoslav villages with the horrific acts of violence is chilling. You get firsthand accounts from both murderers and their victims' families, which adds to the film's emotional weight. The stark visuals and ambient sound design really pull you into this dark corner of humanity. It's definitely not for everyone but has a gritty authenticity that lingers long after the credits roll.
