    One can't speak about it.

    KINORÉVOLUTION! After Leviathan (2012), Paravel and Castaing-Taylor continue breaking new cinematic ground. Like some pioneering nightmarish invention, this is a whole next level of *pure* filmmaking. A miracle indeed. Brutal geography of the face, as if AKA Serial Killer (1969) was transformed by Philippe Grandrieux.
