Ablaze

About This Movie

Ablaze is an interesting exploration of the emotional landscape of a photographer who uses women as his muses. The pacing is deliberate, mirroring the protagonist's internal struggles, and there's this haunting atmosphere that permeates every scene. The collage technique he employs resonates with themes of objectification and longing, which is pretty thought-provoking. The performances lean into the complexity of relationships—especially the tension between love and art. There's a raw authenticity in the way the protagonist seeks to express his pain, culminating in self-harm that feels visceral and unsettling. It’s one of those films that lingers with you, making you reflect on what it means to truly connect with someone beyond the surface.
