Gli Inetti

About This Movie

So, Gli Inetti, it’s this short film that's really interesting, right? Set against the backdrop of the lockdown, it captures a very specific, almost claustrophobic atmosphere. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, which works well given the themes of isolation. Svevo Moltrasio, the director, uses some practical effects here that add a layer of authenticity—like the sound design, which really immerses you into that confined space. The performances are understated yet impactful, conveying a lot with very little dialogue. It’s one of those pieces that reflect the anxiety and stillness of that period, really making you think about our connection to others, even when physically apart. Definitely a distinctive entry in the recent wave of lockdown-inspired cinema.
