About This Movie

So, 'Matèl' is this interesting little drama from 2025 that kind of sneaks up on you. It follows a young guy, stuck in the grind of everyday life, who suddenly gets pulled into the vibrant world of this group of boys at a pedalo rental. The pacing is pretty deliberate, which really suits the exploration of his boredom and then the burst of life when he meets them. The atmosphere is a mix of nostalgia and a kind of longing for something more, which I think resonates with a lot of us. The performances feel genuine; they really tap into those small moments that make life feel vivid. It’s the practical effects, like the water scenes, that really draw you into that world. There's a rawness to it that makes it distinctive.
