Freaks (2019)

With the excuse that people will want to hurt her, a girl, locked inside the house since birth by her insanely overprotective father, manages to escape, only to realise that he was right all along.

Push (2009) meets Stephanie (2017), made in Canada. It is a great narrative accompanied by great cinematography. The compelling atmosphere and the very persuasive acting—a standing ovation for the young actress Lexy Kolker – examine thoroughly, even creating a case study, the philosophy of the masses regarding what it’s like to be different, to stand out, to be able to perform miracles, to feel like a freak and alone.

Turn the lights off, get your other half, your friends, or just a nice drink, and enjoy it! I was thinking of writing that films like Freaks need our support so we can have a lot more of them, but truth be told, we need eye-opening films like Freaks so we can reevaluate the norms of the societies we live in and, as André Bazin would ask, ‘What is Cinema?’
