Nest of Tens

About This Movie

Nest of Tens is this intriguing tapestry of four intertwined stories, really capturing the mundane yet profound ways we try to exert control over our lives. The film presents a unique blend of childhood innocence and raw, unfiltered emotion, especially through the eyes of children and a developmentally disabled adult. The control panels they use—crafted from paper, lists, and even their own bodies—are strikingly imaginative, evoking a sense of playfulness while also touching on deeper themes of autonomy and vulnerability. The pacing meanders, allowing moments to breathe, which heightens the emotional resonance. While the director remains unknown, the performances feel authentic, raw, and deeply affecting, giving the film a distinctive atmosphere that lingers long after it’s over.
