Oscillations

About This Movie

Oscillations is an intriguing piece that intertwines the mundane with the metaphysical. Set against the backdrop of the Montréal Polytechnique, it captures the quiet, almost haunting atmosphere of the night shift through George Édouard, a janitor with a reflective nature. His conversations with Audrey, the PhD student, beautifully weave together themes of music and science, creating a rhythm that pulls you in. The film takes a darker turn with the return of his brother, René, whose exorcism experience brings a layer of eerie tension. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the weight of each moment to sink in. Performances are subtle yet poignant, especially in how they navigate the fragile boundaries of reality and the supernatural, making this a distinctive exploration of human connection and existential inquiry.
