The White King is this haunting blend of drama and science fiction, really capturing a bleak atmosphere that sticks with you. Djata, the young protagonist, is so relatable in his innocence yet thrown into this dark world of dictatorship. The pacing feels right for the story, allowing moments of reflection amidst the chaos. The performances, especially from Djata, are raw and emotive, which makes the stakes feel very real. What stands out here is the way it deals with themes of family and resilience against oppressive forces. The practical effects used to depict the oppressive regime are subtle but powerful, adding depth to the narrative without overwhelming it. It has this unsettling vibe that lingers long after it ends, something that you don’t see often in the genre.
