Sinestesia

I saw Sinestesia at the film festival in Ghent 3 days ago. The second the film started it caught my attention and that lasted for the entire time! The film has a very good build up and although it is not a happy ending as many would describe a happy ending, the circle is round and I was very satisfied. It made me think.

I also really liked the fact that you can't place this film in a genre box since there are lots of different parts representing different genres. In that sense it was very realistic. It made me shiver, laugh and feel sad in an hour and a half and that is something I don't find very often (and miss) in films. I also really liked the way the story is told (different perspectives). Although this kind of storytelling has been done a couple of times before, Sinestesia has a very subtle and different way of doing it which is very interesting and not so in your face. Sinestesia made a lasting impression on me and I would recommend this film to everyone who likes intelligent, realistic and honest films. You will not be disappointed!
