Kahron Spearman Austin Chronicle 10/28/2016
As a first go, Aloys showcases Nlle's superior technical abilities, but the script stammers to an end that only a director who also wrote the film could create. Go to Full Review

Director Tobias Nolle's first full-length film is a tense, dark thriller that delves into contemporary issues of digital isolation, technology, surveillance and privacy. Go to Full Review

Director Tobias Nlle's pretty camera work can't save this film from being an utter chore. Go to Full Review
Jordi Costa El Pais (Spain) 12/05/2016
The film is so overloaded with a certain formal exhibitionism that turns out to be a distraction from its spinal weakness. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Alberto Bermejo El Mundo (Spain) 12/02/2016
The director describes the story in a dry and extremely precision, turning over its protagonist. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

See more Nefasto R @Nefasto 11/22/2020 Between magic realism and sheer craziness, we find "Aloys", a little pearl full of gorgeous scenes and hypnotic moments. See more 05/21/2020 One of the most beautiful and intense movie in all the time, gorgeous, romantic, surreal... See more 01/05/2019 Mesmerising and deeply moving as an evocative journey from disconnection towards connection and intimacy. Both uplifting and very sad too. A beautiful and surreal film, that will resonate in my mind for a long time... See more 04/25/2017 A lonely private investigator that stay clear of everyone likes to film people in his sparetime. His father recently died and now he's all alone. Someone steals his videos and he is blackmailed. The blackmailer and Aloys keep in touch by phone, and they start some sort of relationship as they meet in a imaginary universe. This goes on and he is slowly getting better at entering the mysterious world, utterly fascinated by her voice and mysteriousness. It looks very good, crisp and clean with some very chilling scenes caused by setting and static camera. It's a mindbender and a pretty hard film to digest on a lazy sunday, but it worked out for me. Nice acting jobs, cool score and a very subtle, jet fresh and original plot about loneliness. Aloys sheldered isolation is somewhat relatable but it's presented in a artisitc matter making it much more interesting than the average "loner-film". 7.5 out of 10 foggy windows. See more 12/28/2016 The film explores relationships and the expecations vs realty side of connecting with a person. However as the line between both blurs the film falls into the trap of being overly involved in itself. Grade: B- See more Read all reviews
