You were born to do this

About This Movie

So, 'You Were Born to Do This' has this odd blend of ambition and surreal twists. Fares is stuck in a rut, always getting pigeonholed into roles that just don’t resonate with him, and it’s kind of painful to watch his struggle. The pacing is a bit erratic, which adds to the overall atmosphere of unease and confusion in his life. You can feel the weight of his frustration, and the way his agent suggests a solution sort of spirals into something bizarre, almost like a dark comedy. The practical effects, while not overused, do have a unique charm, and Fares' performance is earnest, giving the film a grounded heart amidst the chaos. It’s definitely one of those indie pieces that sticks with you in a strange way.

This film is quite scarce in terms of available formats, with only a limited release on digital platforms so far, making it a bit of a hidden gem. Collectors are starting to take notice, particularly those who appreciate the indie scene and its often unconventional storytelling. There’s talk of a physical media release, though nothing confirmed, so keep an eye out if you're into unique narratives that explore the struggles of creativity.
