EYE ON JULIET
Recommended. Kim Nguyen is incredible. How is it possible that some Canadian guy with an Asian name understands African (black in "War Witch" and Arab in "Eye on Juliet") cultures and women so well? This time we have globalisation, hexagons and a very modern variation of "Romeo and Juliet". And it does make sense in the movie. Kim Nguyen has created another extraordinary story, this time shot in the US, Ouarzazate Province in Morocco and a little in Paris. Regular pictures mix with night vision and a dash of slow motion. A genius combination of elements seemingly from different cinematic universes. About universality of feelings. And with humour, especially in the scene of a robotic guidance of a blind elderly Arab to whom the operator won't admit he's a robot.
