Review of Krisha (2016) by Chris F — 17 Aug 2016

Krisha is a raw, real, and emotionally wrenching look into a dysfunctional family. the performances are exceptional, especially the woman playing the title character, also named Krisha. the directing and writing is bracingly real and raw and I couldn't look away from the screen.

it's so uncomfortable at times, I really wanted too, but I couldn't, I was so riveted. it's premise may be familiar, but this one stands out from all the rest. definitely one of the stand out films of the year and a stunning directorial debut.
