This is a pointer for MOSQUITOS. I’m not going to do a full-on review because the film did not click with me in a way that makes me think it’s purely a matter of personal taste and not quality of the film.
The film is the story of a young girl who moves to Italy
with her free spirted mother. There she meets two sisters who about her age and
the trio form a protective bond.
Shot mostly in a square 1:1 aspect ratio this is a film that is
extremely deliberate in its presentation and its telling. You can feel the hands
of directors Valentina and Nicole Bertani all over it. They are micromanaging
every aspect of the film. It’s too much for my tastes and nothing ever felt
real to me. And while I don’t care for micromanaged
films, I know a lot of people who are and so I’m going to leave the choice to
see the film or not up to you.
