Catharsis

About This Movie

Catharsis is an interesting blend of comedy and drama, driven by this offbeat premise where Alexander finds himself under the lens of a camera, almost like a living documentary. The tone fluctuates between surreal and introspective, which makes you ponder what’s real and what’s performance. The pace is a bit uneven, but that sort of reflects his chaotic life—like a film student grappling with the absurdities of existence. The performances feel very grounded, especially the dynamic with Emeline, her obliviousness adds an interesting layer. It’s not all polished; there's a rawness that captures the essence of being an artist, struggling to find identity and purpose amidst life’s absurdities. Quite a unique piece in its own right.
