Asako I & II (2018)

“By far the most surprising and satisfying selection of this year's Cannes Competition, Hamaguchi Ryusuke's Asako I & II sets up and throws out stylistic paradigms faster than you can grab hold of them.” –

3.5/5
“To watch one of Herzog's films is to enter into a state of madness, the only reasonable response to the world portrayed on the other side of the director's camera, an extension of his own perception.” –
