I stumbled upon this film by chance and it captivated me right from the start. The writing is powerful, transforming a simple conversation into something profound. The main character drives the entire story and his performance alone keeps you engaged without any flashy visuals.
It’s a bare-bones, almost theatrical piece where every line stimulates thought. There's no special effects or spectacle just impactful words. This minimalist approach turns an everyday living room into a thought-provoking stage for themes like history, science, faith and the human condition.
This film resonated with me so much that I often recommend it. It’s a unique masterpiece that shows how cinema can be impactful with little more than a great idea and dedicated actors.
