Framework

About This Movie

Framework is this understated piece that plays with tension in a really intriguing way. Set in the lazy warmth of rural France, it starts off almost pastoral, but then this stranger shows up and everything shifts. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to sit with the boys' curiosity and unease. The performances have a rawness that feels authentic, especially the way they react to this charismatic yet menacing figure. It's not flashy, but it uses practical effects sparingly to keep the focus on character dynamics. You can almost feel the summer heat, mixed with a creeping sense of dread. The themes of trust and the loss of innocence resonate through the film, making it haunting in its own quiet way.
