The First Day

About This Movie

So, 'The First Day' is this intriguing little film from 2012 that gives you a real sense of unease. The atmosphere is thick, and the tone is heavy with mystery. You’ve got this captive patient, who’s dealing with this bizarre condition of chronic déjà vu, which is just a fascinating premise. The pacing is interesting too; it slowly unravels the layers of his reality, making you question everything along with him. I found the performances to be quite compelling, especially given how little is known about the director. There’s a rawness to the practical effects that adds to the film’s unsettling vibe, making it a distinctive watch in the indie drama and mystery realm.
