Shelter in Place (2021)
A Master In Restraint

Nowadays it's so common for films to adhere to strict plot structures, so I admired the director's restraint and ability to allow the audience to have space to breathe and reflect. It felt like a Kurosawa film at times or more modern, Norway's new "Slow TV" craze. The story points are thin at times but I'd love to imagine that was by design much like my favorite titles from Eastern Cinema.
Overall, it isn't everyone's cup of tea, especially those looking for jump scares, but I had a good experience.
