[Fantasia '24] Although in the last part, this dystopian story becomes more conventional and loses the subtlety that we found in the first two acts of the story, it works when it focuses on the brothers' relationship and the psychological impact of a situation as extreme as the disappearance of a good part of humanity due to a virus. The eldest brother uses the naivety that the children display as a kind of defense element, which preserves them from the awareness of the cruelest situations. But despite the horror elements, the film manages to have a kind of poetry in the visual, creating moments that, within the dark character itself, end up adopting a certain gothic look.
