From the Judges, on O.I. (2019)
From the Judges, on O.I.
A deceptively simple premise unfolds with real invention here, and the panel found the craft holding it up just as assured: cinematography, sound, locations, costume, colour grade and music all pulling in the same direction. The concept is executed with confidence and a sharp streak of humour, carried by performances that landed with them straight away. It moves with a sureness that leaves you turning it over long after, the kind of original thinking that gets filmmakers talking.
