Fragile Souls (2019)

Esse curta não merecia a nota que tem

Fragile Souls, ou Almas Frágeis para nós, é uma produção impecável de menos de 10 minutos.

Um curta que não merece uma nota tão pequena para tamanha sensibilidade e simbologia.
A sinopse já conta praticamente tudo, mas é uma história silenciosa e escura, numa clara (rs) alusão ao emocional do principal, onde tudo que o espectador escuta são ruídos brancos e os complexos internos que saem do toca fitas de Zi Fan. A forma como os personagens se encontram, como almas mesmo, sem precisar de falas para que você entenda a metáfora da divisão dos fones, é simplesmente divina. Eu recomendo à todos.

Story: The Summary in the description pretty much says everything.

A magical casette that, once you play it, the listener get to glimpse the inner thoughts of the people in his immediate vicinity.

The Student Council president happens to have this cassette with him, and he also happens to have a crush on his classmate who seem to repricocate his feelings.

One of the inner voices he heard was one who suffered domestic abuse at the hands of his father. Whose is it? He wondered as he goes searching the halls for his crush.

They meet at the bathroom stall, how convenient, and some lip-locking takes place.

You have to suspend your disbelief a tad bit with this movie, not just for the magical device, but especially seeing that there were no teachers overseeing the college entrance exams and they are free to roam the corridors as they please.

But aside from that, the story is poignant and relatable if anybody ever suffers abuse due to the pressures brought upon you by your own family. Second place isn't as good as first place, according to the victim's parents. That whatever you do is never going to be good enough.

The silver lining is that you're not alone in the world, that someone out there will understand you if you let them.

Acting: Passable.

Music: Nothing worth nothing.

Rewatch Value: Good enough to warrant another run.
