THE
3RD LETTER
|
||||||||||||
|
It's pretty apparent by director Grzegorz Jonkajtys' newest film, that his view of the world is not sugar coated and fanciful, but indeed dark and morbid. "The 3rd Letter" is yet another post-apocalyptic look at the world through the eyes of a man who clearly has no hope for humanity and features an even more disturbing look at a world on the brink of annihilation thanks to our own willingness to destroy ourselves. This time a live action film, "The 3rd Letter" is set in a world where factories have overrun the cityscapes blanketing the environment in poisonous and toxic fog from smoke stacks.
The struggles this character endures is agonizing to witness as he occupies sterile and often blank spaces hoping to survive for another day where he'll spend it figuring out how to live for another. The endless cycle is vicious and truly terrible, especially as he must fix his pacemaker before its battery life wastes before his very eyes. Jonkajtys is a truly gifted filmmaker who knows how to invoke emotions of bleak futility in our world filled with all sorts of means of destruction and waste, and channels his skills in yet another end of a society doomed to shoot itself in the foot.
