I was fortunate to come across The Sound Eye through the lead actor Wassim Hawat.
After watching a trailer and hearing other good reviews around, I took the plunge and paid a mighty $7 (absolutely well spent) to watch this film.
I was really blown away by how confident the film is from the get go, It very cleverly takes its time to deliver character beats and story arcs as its own pace, deliberately without giving too much away and allowing the viewer to uncover some twists and turns with the main character Vincent (Wassim Hawat).
The Sound Eye is a solid film delving deep into faith, morality, retribution and revenge, love, betrayal, fate, acceptance, loss and the ability of one's self to move on. And recover from personal trauma
I was particularly blown away by Wassim Hawat's performance, stealing the show with his wide range of emotions. There was a particular scene between his character Vincent and Gloiria (Shakila Zab) where you can truly see the happiness in Vincent's eyes and how head over heels (quite literally at one point) he is with this woman.
The Sound Eye is an extremely solid film with some deep meanings well worth discovering.
Highly recommended for fans of independent cinema with a psychological twist.
