Neither forest nor oblivion

About This Movie

Neither forest nor oblivion is a meditative drama that immerses you in the internal struggles of its protagonist. There's a stark yet haunting atmosphere throughout, which really captures that sense of isolation and relentless searching. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like a slow walk through dense woods, where each moment lingers, reflecting the character's turbulent mind. It draws inspiration from Pizarnik’s poem, which adds a layer of depth and poetic exploration to the narrative. The practical effects used subtly enhance the dreamlike quality, making the woods feel alive yet oppressive. Performances lean into this brokenness, creating an intimate connection as we witness this man’s journey through despair and the search for solace.
