You Are God

About This Movie

You Are God is a reflective dive into the 90s Polish music scene, focusing on the trio behind the rap group Paktofonika. The film captures the grit and struggle of friendship amidst the harsh realities of Silesia, where traditional values are fading. It's not just about the rise to fame; it's about personal battles, societal pressures, and the music that binds them. The performances have a raw authenticity, really bringing the characters to life without feeling overly dramatic. Pacing is a bit uneven, mirroring the chaotic journey they embark on. The atmosphere is heavy, almost palpable, as it grapples with themes of aspiration and disillusionment. A distinctive piece for those who appreciate music history and true stories.
