One of the worst movies I've seen this year. The gimmick with using deaf actors and no subtitles feels like a giant waste, and it's more frustrating because you can tell the narrative (and there's barely a narrative here) has to get explained in a really elongated way due to the format. But at least the "silent film" idea is admirable. I couldn't understand the use of long takes for every scene. There's no purpose to it other than showing off how good everyone is at rehearsing. I just can't stand movies that use the long take to show off how impressive and artistic it is when it's completely empty and artless. Leave long takes to the people who know how to use them (ex. Bela Tarr, Tsai Ming-Liang, Chantal Akerman). This is just a miserable, arthouse version of Birdman.
