Review of Residue

Residue (2020)
9/10
Change and Lament.
1 May 2022
A highly poetic treatise on how one can feel if they succumb to letting fine memories of their glorious past hinder their present. The shooting style of this film is hyper-realistic.

The time span is epic, covering the characters childhood in detail all the way through to the present. The editing style flips between points of time in such a beautiful way - I've not seen memories and scenes blended with such perfection in any other film. Flashbacks usually bother me in films, but here they didn't. It reminds me of Nicholas Roeg's style.

An efficacious look across time into the innermost world of a man and the universe surrounding him. Outstanding storytelling.
