FILM THREAT: THE PINK CLOUD
March 1, 2022
"Writer-director Iuli Gerbase’s feature-length debut, the eerily prescient Brazilian sci-fi drama The Pink Cloud, marks the arrival of a major talent. The minimalist film offers an intoxicating blend of despondent allegory and accurate study of humanity’s deterioration when faced with total isolation. It’s one of the best pandemic-themed films of the COVID era… only it began production a year before the virus overtook our lives. Corona was just a beer you drank with a slice of lime back then."
