Le Boudin is this intriguing documentary that dives deep into the life of Nuno Fialho, who was just a kid when the French Foreign Legion swept him into its ranks. The tone is raw, almost haunting, as young Elias Geißler navigates the fragmented memories and stark realities of conscription. You get this atmospheric blend of personal testimony and historical context that’s pretty captivating, really. The pacing is deliberate, allowing Fialho's story to unfold in a way that feels intimate yet expansive. It's not flashy, but the starkness of the visuals underscores the weight of the narrative. This film dives into themes of identity and agency, making it a distinctive piece in the realm of documentary filmmaking.
