🔪 Salmon
Dir. Mattis Heurlin
https://www.repri.se/salmon

Driven by a couple of excellent performances, some kinetic cinematography, an energetic edit and a pulsating, jazz-infused score, the 20-minutes of Salmon is the kind of gripping, immersive filmmaking you just can't take your eyes off. - S/W Curator, Rob Munday
