Juan-Pablo Robayo tends to take the film
medium he possesses with a great zeal, and it shows with “Prisma” which
is an awfully aggressive short experimental thriller about a young man’s
descent into darkness. But Robayo builds his story and his film around
the musical score relying on it to tell the story where as other films
usually tend to practice the exact opposite. It works in his favor, as
“Prisma” is an interesting and visually stark short film that works on a
visceral and powerful level where Robayo attempts to provide a larger
sense of power behind the film beyond its mere conventions of
experimentation.
I wasn’t really sure what it is I’d watched
in the end for the fact that the story, if there is one, was pretty
confusing. “Prisma” is experimental, but Robayo seems to try to tell a
story, and sadly, it was lost
The story was nowhere to be found, but
“Prisma” is an otherwise interesting, and daring experimental short with
Robayo’s talent’s apparent in every scene.
