It's the beautiful simplicity in its true-to-everyday-life-telling which makes "In Another Life" stand apart as the beautiful gem it is.
Following the paths of a couple dealing with the monotony and listlessness of a life which appears to have no joy, audiences will connect to this story in its relatable and utterly unfulfilled characters. These rich characters of lonely, aging mothers and sad, trapped couples, accentuate feelings of isolation constructed by the demands of our modern societies. And as the world within this film appears to speeds up, each of these characters seems to slow down, failing to connect to one another or even to themselves, eternally stuck in their current hollow existences. The film unconsciously addresses the old-age question: why are we here?
From the Uta Hagen-like acting, to the egoless direction, this film is flawless. A must-see!
