Rukavina's AT A STILL POINT is one of those films made with nothing but love. It's honest, it's young, it's free and one of the better shorts I've seen by first-time director. Friends talk about their lost friend at a dinner table in such a fashion that you can sense almost a childish game between twenty-something actors playing it fresh to the bone. Masculine guy with funny tears and a hammer-arm stands still like a robot and can not believe his best friends can't show any respect for a friend killed in a car-accident (demonstrated with little toys right there on the dinner table). Rukavina's heart for the people and film-making is not afraid to be adolescent and I think that's the greatest virtue accomplished here. It gave a story a friendly touch and even though it feels personal (loosing a good friend)- it's not lamenting over anything. On the contrary, friend is gone, life goes on, you carry your friend forever in your head- good and bad things- and you don't mope. You feel hope because there's another story waiting for you and you're never alone. This place we live in is everything but that easy. If you can not joke about a dead friend- you're not free. If you can't let it go- you're weak. It's cold out there. It's great to be alive and we need films like this to remind us of that feeling. Uplifting and fresh.
