Social Anxiety: The Movie

It's drama but it's quite horrifying I felt claustrophobic, stressed, uncomfortable, embarassed and awkward - just like family gatherings usually are. Seeing people you'd prefer not to see, old people asking how your life is going and what your plans are for the next fifty years, got a relationship? got a job?... I found it very competent at capturing that. The love triangle/coming of age stuff was well done too, it's not usually my cup of tea but I was invested. It's done in a single location, has a short runtime and the pacing was great. Amazing acting, the camera close-ups help create a claustrophobic watch and the score was superb and kinda horrifying it could of been in a horror movie. Very tense and engaging. That was a wild funeral!


To anyone who enjoyed this, watch *Krisha* (2015) it's very similar.
