Alex of Venice

About This Movie

Alex of Venice is a quiet film that really digs into the struggles of balancing personal and professional life. The protagonist, played with a subtlety that feels very real, grapples with her new single parenthood after her husband leaves. The pacing has this almost languid feel, which might not appeal to everyone, but it allows for a rich exploration of her emotional landscape. The atmosphere is layered with a hint of melancholy, but also moments of warmth and humor. You get a genuine sense of the chaos in her life—juggling her son, her father’s health, and her career. It’s not flashy, but that’s what makes it distinctive; the performances feel lived-in and relatable.

A contemplative look at personal challenges. · Strong performances, especially from the lead. · Cinematography captures the mood beautifully.
