Review of Nakusa

Nakusa (2021)
10/10
ENTRANCED
6 April 2022
Right from the beginning I was drawn in by the music, Not knowing what I was about to watch, just hearing the wind, the sound of glass breaking had me already anticipating that is was going to be a scary movie. As I heard the actress, Jennifer beginning to speak, she made me more anxious, with still not knowing what I was about to watch, my hands even began to sweat just from the dramatic music and the voice I heard.

I was wrong with the expectancy of what I thought I was going to see. Instead, I saw a woman who was abandoned, discarded like she was valueless into a world that she came to know as her isolated world. A helpless soul wanting love, feeling so lost and knowing you can only live with being touched, valued and loved. Her world and everything around her finally pulverized for her lack of the love from her mother she so wanted and needed.

Jennifer Kramer is a virtuoso actress and pianist which she has exemplified in her short film.

The intensity of this film, when it was over had me feeling sorrowful for the character, and in some ways I could identity with some of what she felt. Though I was saddened by what the character when through, it left me wanting to see more of the film. It ended too soon.

Well done Jennifer, you made a masterful short film, can't wait until you make another one.
