As gentle as a summer breeze, as all-consuming as the sun.
Yeah, well, I've watched it twice now. It's quite addictive, but way too short. I really don't think Kiyoi is the most problematic one in this relationship. He can be harsh and rude, but you honestly don't need a magnifying glass to see through that farce. They did have this power imbalance between them, but Kiyoi isn't the only one to blame for this.
Hira's obsessive behavior was just as problematic to me. It was pretty obvious what was going on between these two, and if Hira wasn't so self-absorbed all the time, he should have been able to tell. I feel like both of them are quite vulnerable and insecure people that deal with their vulnerability in different ways. Kioyi hides his feelings behind harsh words and actions, while Hira tries to be as invisible as possible while shutting everybody out. That's probably the reason why I didn't just mark it off as toxic, since it deals with people's insecurities and emotions in a sympathizing way, even if those can be self-destructive and unhealthy.
It's not as deep as it wants to be, but it definitely has its impactful moments that linger with you. I particularly enjoyed how they played with the view the leads have of each other and their relationship and how we, if we pay close attention, can already see everything. They were subtle, but to me the emotions were loud and clear and somehow that even enhanced the emotions when they got voiced out. We got some beautiful scenery shots and the way they played with camera angles, lighting and music made for some atmospheric and captivating shots between our leads.
Overall, I really liked the performance of the actors.
In some scenes the acting wasn't as nuanced as it could have been, but It wasn't for the lack of trying, so I'm really happy with what we've got since they managed to move me with their performance. I just wish this was longer since the short length kinda lessens the impact and there is still so much more to explore here. They're both incredibly flawed characters, but there's something about them that tugs at your heartstrings.
