Thirteen 59

About This Movie

So 'Thirteen 59' is a really intriguing piece, right? It's got this heavy, introspective vibe, diving deep into the mental aftermath of war. The pacing can feel slow, but it really builds this sense of unease; you’re left with the echoes of a soldier’s psyche. The film plays with sound, or rather, the absence of it, which is kind of haunting. The visuals are stripped down, focusing on the isolation of this commander who wakes up after years, grappling with a reality that's lost its familiar sounds—specifically, the waves. It's more about the internal struggle than any grand action, which sets it apart from typical war narratives. Performances are understated but effective, adding layers to the tension.
