Fuga

An intriguing film about a woman who has reappeared after a long and initially unexplained absence, and who is now disconnected from her husband, child and any expectations as to what a 'good mother' should be. The deep focus cinematography often positions its lead in the centre of an expansive widescreen shot, as isolated and independent as Varda's Vagabond. A work on feminist identity disguised as psychodrama

The plot keeps you interested for a while because you want to know what happened, but soon enough you realize it's not going to be very interesting to follow. That's to me a missed opportunity to make a good movie. Now you just get a well acted, I'll give them that, but in the end boring movie. I don't know any of the Polish actors but they were convincing. The cinematography was okay, but the story was pointless and not worth making a movie of it. I would pass on this one and watch something else if I were you.

A woman in high heels and business attire walks out of a subway tunnel and rolls herself up into the station platform and promptly urinates. The crowd waiting around look uneasy; obviously. That's how this film opens up. Certainly, grabs your attention and makes you wonder what in the world happened to her. Turns out this lady has been missing for two years. Her family tries to figure out where she had been as she had partial amnesia and her personality has changed. Follow the mental anguish as they try to piece her memory and their lives back together. This was a slow burn drama that lacked the same level of intrigue as the opening scene. Solid acting and basic cinematography. The movie poster is really bold though.
