About This Movie

So, 'Postcards' from 1989 is this intriguing documentary that sort of drifts through time, you know? It’s inspired by these old postcards from the 1920s and 1930s, which I find fascinating. The film weaves together the travels of a woman exploring the Adriatic islands, and it has this nostalgic, almost wistful vibe. The pacing is gentle, letting you soak in the atmosphere of those bygone days. The visuals are really striking, and there's a certain charm in how the postcards serve as a narrative device. It’s not just about the places; it’s about the stories etched in those images. You feel like you're peeking into someone’s life, which is pretty distinctive for a documentary.
