Illness (2013)
Chaotically Beautiful, finally a movie that makes you feel like you fit in!
I saw this movie during the Southampton International Film Festival, in early October 2013, and had been anticipating to see it for some time. The reviews were full of praise and if the award and nomination count was anything to go by, I knew I would be entertained.
As the movie began I found myself a little confused by the chaos in which director decided to film this movie, but as the story got a shape and I became familiar with the characters I found myself appreciating this way of filming.
This movie is one that deals with mental disorder, which are no laughing feat. Soon enough you find yourself caring for these characters.
This is not a movie you should go see if you wish to sit back and not think. I believe you cannot truly appreciate the beauty of Illness if you do not take the time to analyze the characters and their actions.
This film needs to be a feature film, not a short!
