Cronofobia (2018)

(Ischia Film Festival, 29 June 2019)

One gleans only partial insight into the lives of others and yet must guess quickly and enough (but not too much) in order to help others and to help oneself. The narrative flows better if one dares to trust and is conscious of the progress of time.

The movie begins and progresses in a quiet, Mr. Klein kind of way, courtesy of Vinicio Marchioni and Sabine Timoteo in equal measure, the occasional shouting by the barrier notwithstanding.
