Desperately

About This Movie

So, 'Desperately' dives into the murky waters of the human psyche. It’s set in the world of early psychoanalysis, which is interesting because it’s not just about the patient; it’s about the analyst’s journey too. Gyömrői, the young analyst, is practically drowning in her own ambition while trying to pull Attila József from his depths of despair. The pacing is contemplative, matching the heavy atmosphere that suffuses every scene. You get these raw, almost visceral performances that really bring out the fragility of both characters. The cinematography feels quite intimate, enhancing that one-on-one dynamic. You can sense the tension, the desperation. It’s distinct because it’s less about flashy effects and more about the psychological unraveling of its characters.
