Sakrament

About This Movie

Sakrament, directed by Rickard Günther, is this fascinating exploration of themes like desire and distortion, woven through Lars Norén's texts. It's not just a drama; it’s an experience. The interplay of Gregorian chants with a really unusual take on eroticism creates a haunting atmosphere. You can feel the tension in the performances, which seem to breathe with that palpable Swedish darkness. The pacing is deliberate, almost meditative at times, which really makes those moments of raw emotion hit harder. You can't help but appreciate the unique blend of lyrical beauty and unsettling imagery. And the practical effects, while not overwhelming, have a raw quality that adds to the film’s distinctive edge. Definitely one for those who enjoy the more avant-garde side of cinema.
