      Revisiting the past in reminiscence

      This film's ode to the Picadilly Theatre and Greek Mythology was a beautifully harmony all throughout.

      Nothing like I've ever seen before. As a Lebanese myself, I felt it held me in time of destruction while also rekindling with Elektra's journey.

      To find subtle parallels between Elektra and Lebanon's slow decline in a ghostly venue made it all the more effective.

      Not to mention the kaleidoscopic cinematography, that used one space to transcend into a mystical world.

      A dreamy-eery tone carries the story structure - perfectly in tandem with the relationship dynamics between the actors.

      Highly recommend!

      Meditation with Cinema

      Whenever I feel overwhelmed with social media feeds or by TV shows that are very fast pace and stimulating I go back this very artistic and meditative film, it really relaxes me and engages me at the same time.

      The blocking, camera movements and the sets are so in harmony you feel that you are in the hands of a good filmmaker who can make you feel the plot more than tell you and show you.

      The cast is amazing and the acting is unrealistically real, the camera work is on point and editing is seamless and smooth.

      My only complaint is the sexual/sensual scenes, I feel they belong to the film but. It in a physical sense..
