The Human Surge
I recently discovered the genius work of Eduardo 'Teddy' Williams. The Human Surge melts the distinction between fiction and documentary and gives birth to its own type of storytelling structure while also working with non-professional actors, bringing an insane amount of authenticity. They not only hit their marks and pace, but the way they deliver their lines can't possibly inform of a script—which I later read was actually given. Not only that, but the playful and poetic visual expression of the director hasn't given me a break for a month since I've seen the film. I haven't felt so inspired by cinema in a long time. I'm so happy to be witnessing my generation changing the winds of cinema to such an extent!
