Audience Member A significant step up from Aftermath, his last, vastly more graphic feature, Nacho Cedrà crafts an odd but interesting and strangely moving short film about love, loss, sorrow and commitment. Once again there's no dialogue, but it works much better this time round because we have more to absorb and feel. The main characters ordeal is brought to us with striking visuals and a beautifully fitting musical score. At less than half an hour long it might be viewed as more of a time filler, and isn't the kind of thing you could watch repeatedly, but as a one-off experience, it's clever, well-made and surprisingly emotional. It's the type of picture more people should be talking about, and many more should be enjoying. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Cerda finishes strong with a piece about mourning. It's well-shot and the most affective of the trilogy, showing grief and loss in detail, instead of the sterile Aftermath or drab, grayscale Awakening. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Genesis is a haunting tale of love, death and dedication in a sorta Twlight Zone kinda way. It's a much better experience than I had with Cerda's previous effort Aftermath and it leaves me wanting to see it again right after I just finished it. Beautiful cinematography, fitting music and a gorgeous actress, Trae Houlihan. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member An awesome final installment in the Aftermath trilogy. Not as disturbing as the last, but very creative. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Une magnifique declaration d'amour a la creation quelle qu'elle soit. Superbe. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice psychological tale for 3 of 3 of these short films. And with this I give you life...
