The Forest of Wool and Steel (2018)

Aesthetics and order of the elements

[8/10 · 3 April 2019]

One of those films you can only encounter throughout a myriad of rare circumstances, "The forest of wool and steel" captivates the audience not by the use climax building or such, but by the mere use of aesthetic correlations and simple details. The relations between the piano player and the piano tuner, the main elements of the story, tell us a perfect example of how life is not about protagonisms but about the balance of all things.

The Little Drummer Girl (2018)

Sublime work by Park

[10/10 · 25 February 2019]

The small series is a poetic work about human nature, playing with the emotions and sympathy of the audience, first towards the Jewish cause and then after the Palestine, leaving us with great doubt without foreseeable answers. As always, Park's direction is majestic.
