Widows (2018) Steve McQueen audio as a layer on top of the situation (conversation in the car + shots of car from the outside + transition of one place to another in one shot, radio telling one secondary story over another secondary story), dramatic cuts 11.18 kino
Touch Me Not (2018) Adina Pintilie the aesthetics does not match the content, too stylized and too removed, the silence, hesitation and alternative practices make you think, but not feel; not feeling very well during + after 12.18 lv
Shoplifters MANBIKI KAZOKU (2018) Hirokazu Kore-eda subtlety 12.18 kino
