Review: The Square
from Roll The Credits · host Frank DiSalvo and Zach Johnson
Art is subjective, that is what separates people from feeling overwhelming emotions or nothing at all and just like this film, it can do the same. We follow the story of Christian, an art curator who's story starts with his wallet and phone being stolen, which devolves into a combination of themes tackling homelessness, hierarchies in society, animal instincts and fear. While this may not be the most digestable film to watch, it does bring up great topics to discuss leaving them open ended in the film as well as having stunning visuals and acting. It may not be a film that got a lot of exposure but it is something to check out and that is the "difference between art and marketing".
