About This Movie

Artur, the lead, is grappling with his fading career, and it’s fascinating how his Tinder encounters serve both as a distraction and a reflection of his inner turmoil. The pacing is measured, allowing moments of silence to linger, which adds to the film’s contemplative atmosphere. Neves’ direction feels intimate, drawing out genuine performances that make you feel the weight of Artur's struggles. The practical effects are subtle, yet they enhance the emotional landscape. There's a certain rawness to the script that keeps it grounded, making it an intriguing study of identity and connection in a digital age.
