3.5/4
Invincible ... tells the true story of a 14-year-old boy ... who spends a furlough with his family before returning to a youth detention center. Sensitively directed and acted, it shows the boy’s struggle with confinement and conformity. Go to Full Review

Vitoria F @RT33537504 Mar 12, 2024 Film so well executed that it doesn't even look like a short film. It tells the story with such calm, emotion and care that it conveys its message better than many long dramas. Beautiful cast, with great acting. See more Dallas H @RT53171010 Mar 9, 2024 I've seen variations of this story several times before, even though it is based on a true story. See more matthias s @Thescreenasvor Feb 26, 2024 "Invincible" immerses viewers into the poignant final 48 hours of Marc-Antoine Bernier's life, inspired by true events. The film adeptly captures the desperate yearning for freedom of the 14-year-old protagonist, portrayed with remarkable depth by Leokiem Beaumier Lepine. Particularly striking is the authentic and raw portrayal of Marc-Antoine's relationship with his younger sister, evoking genuine emotion. Lepine's performance heralds a promising future in acting, leaving a lasting impression on audiences. The narrative skillfully delves into Marc-Antoine's troubled psyche, offering viewers a profound glimpse into his world, which feels both pure and intense. The film's Oscar nomination for Best Short Film is well-deserved, shedding light on important themes and spreading a powerful message. As someone who has grappled with depression, the film resonates deeply, offering a relatable and empathetic portrayal of mental health struggles. "Invincible" leaves a lasting impact, prompting a desire for a future full-length feature to further explore its compelling narrative. See more Cesar L @RT48420896 Feb 22, 2024 This is a must watch. Such an amazing film. Creativity and delivery at its best. I was not expecting this film to grab my attention feom the first minute and not let me go until the end. Such a thoughtful and well produced and acted story. I would have loved to have seen this for a whole 1.5-2hrs. I loved it! See more Yash B @yashbansal Feb 18, 2024 "Invincible" is a short film told with a lot of care and love. Finding out this is inspired by a real story really brings this one home and makes it feel very personal by the end. I think this works very well as a short film, but I also felt it could have been a feature film with its premise and how emotional it felt. Overall, it is a very good short that made me feel emotionally invested and genuinely impacted in a good way. See more Read all reviews
