Review of Foxtrot (2017) by Ismael G — 01 Sep 2017
"Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future" Oscar Wilde.
Few times in life you will see a movie that´ll surprise you like Foxtrot. And you can take that as a compliment or as critic, however you feel being fooled. I like it personally.
Foxtrot is a work of art, and as the director described it, the perfect dance between father and son. Something you coordinated between two souls that you would not expect, but that at the end of day becomes beautiful. That is Foxtrot.
The actors, they are all magnificent representing a broken role in a broken society. And specially in the situation they are supposed to represent, they really know how to look you in the eyes and tell you that the world is not alright. And that they need help.
Foxtrot is a dance because it keeps flowing constantly throughout the film, not even taking a moment to breath. Following the rhythm of the music as the tragedy moves on. And just like everything around them, staring at the world falling apart. Because there´s not much that you can do.
