Dawn

About This Movie

Dawn is a fascinating slice of life that captures the raw emotions of displacement. The pacing is contemplative, allowing the viewer to really sit with the heavy themes of identity and belonging. Tanovic’s decision to interview a Bosnian refugee in the heart of Belgium adds layers to the narrative, creating an intimate space for reflection. The atmosphere feels honest, almost raw, as you listen to personal stories unfold against a backdrop of a new life that feels both promising and isolating. The practical effects are non-existent, but the performances—especially that of the refugee—carry a weight that’s hard to shake off. It’s not flashy, but it’s powerful in its simplicity. A reflective piece that lingers long after the credits roll.

The film's pacing invites contemplation. · Witness the raw depth of personal storytelling. · A unique perspective on the refugee experience.
