Un altro mondo

About This Movie

Un altro mondo is one of those films that captures the weight of familial estrangement against the backdrop of Kenya's vivid landscapes. Andrea, the protagonist, is ensconced in privilege yet feels this nagging emptiness. The pacing here feels deliberate, allowing us to soak in his internal struggle while navigating the raw emotions of his father's impending death. The performances give off an authentic vibe, especially as Andrea confronts his past and the stark realities of a life lived without connection. The visuals are striking, with the Kenyan setting almost acting as another character, contrasting Andrea's sheltered life. It's a quiet film that asks a lot of its audience, layered with themes of redemption and identity.
