Review of The Absent

The Absent (2005)
7/10
Interesting take and worth a watch
6 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
From the beginning it was obvious that the lead actress was beginning to feel the effects of mental disability.

As more went wrong in her life her brain snapped and she could only see those close to her and in turn felt alone in the world.

It got to a point where she didn't even realize her kids were her kids.

A sad take on mental illness.

I am sure this wont be rated well as this type of movie does not go over well in America. If there is no happy ending or hero to save the day then Americans feel ripped off.

This movie deserves much more credit and if you are into foreign films then you will most likely enjoy this.

6.9.
