Disquietude: Getting Through The Day

4.5/5      

Written by Luke Barnes

Summary

An abuse survivor becomes trapped within her PTSD isolation.

This was a moving film in many ways. I think it says a lot about trauma and how we process it and in some cases carry it around with us for the rest of our lives and struggle everyday under the weight of it. I think this film needs to be seen as it gives us a window into the suffering of our fellow humans and helps us to be better and to think more about the trials of other people.

This film made me cry several times over its short runtime, it is very powerful. It is hard not to care about the characters and care about what is happening to them, over the course of the short you become sucked into their dark world and see things through their eyes and trust me when I say it will stay with you.

Overall, this film is powerful and a must see for many reasons, but the darkness of it can be a little overwhelming at times however despite that I think this is a great film.

Pros.

The emotion

The message

The performances

The character journey

The ending

Cons.

The darkness can be a little overwhelming at times
