So, 'Milk and Meat' is an interesting dive into rural life and personal struggle. Directed by André Velts, it presents a raw, almost gritty atmosphere that contrasts with the idyllic pastoral setting. Medea's journey from the city to the farm feels authentic, but it’s really her internal struggle that resonates. The pacing is deliberate, allowing us to sit with her discomfort as she grapples with her husband’s ambition. The performances are solid, particularly the way the lead embodies both vulnerability and strength. The themes of love versus ambition and the clash between dreams and reality are explored without heavy-handedness. You’ll notice some practical effects that add to the film’s grounded feel. It’s a character-driven piece that lingers long after the credits roll.
