Erection

About This Movie

Erection (2013) dives into the messy terrain of modern relationships, centering on Dean's struggle to regain his virility, which oddly parallels his emotional state. It's got this raw, almost awkward vibe that really captures the anxiety surrounding intimacy. The pacing feels a bit uneven but in a way that mirrors Dean’s own ups and downs. Practical effects are minimal—mostly relying on dialogue and performances to convey those moments of tension. The performances are sincere, albeit sometimes cringy, but that’s part of its charm. It’s not your typical drama; it’s more of a character study that challenges societal expectations about masculinity and vulnerability. Definitely a unique entry in the indie scene.

Focuses on themes of intimacy and masculinity · Uneven pacing reflects character's emotional journey · Sincere performances add to its raw atmosphere
