Relics

About This Movie

So, 'Relics' is an interesting one—kind of a dark comedy that doesn’t really fit the mold. The atmosphere has this really unique blend of tension and humor, with a salesman who’s desperately trying to push this cleaning machine on a woman who's dealing with some pretty heavy stuff. The pacing is contemplative, reflecting the weight of the themes like life, death, and the absurdity in between. There's something raw about the performances, especially from the leads, who strike a chord with their emotional depth. Practical effects are minimal but effective, keeping the focus where it should be: on the dialogue and the interactions. It’s definitely a conversation starter among collectors, just because it dances around such heavy subject matter while keeping a light tone in the story.

Combines dark humor with serious themes · Notable for its character-driven narrative · Interesting exploration of life and death
