Compelling cinema.
I took pleasure in watching The Lost Door.
It is poetic and very beautifully filmed, this in contrast to the dark subject. I love the acting and the story, how it enrolls and how it ends in a surprising way. I was swept away by the poetry and the play with music and sound versus speech. More than an erotic film The Lost Door is a statement and an invitation to explore our human condition and so-called free will. It is much deeper than one would expect, pretty much an art pamphlet that puts new light on human relations.
The different layers invite to watch the movie several times. Which I intend to do.
There is so much to be enjoyed.
