Persona Ratings & Reviews
- makdelartDecember 30, 2025A masterpiece of acting, directing and cinematography. The ambiguous/multiple meanings of the plot, which allows for various interpretations, may cause confusion. And that is precisely what makes it so extraordinary and interesting – a cinematic story that appeals to the senses, evokes emotions and stimulates reflection on the spectacle in which one has participated.
