Amelie ♡May 14, 2025Unfolding like 100 years of home video footage that were shot by the family ghosts, Mascha Schilinski’s rich and mesmeric “Sound of Falling” glimpses four generation of young women as they live, die, and suffuse their memories into the walls of a rural farmhouse in the…

Sound of falling asleep
Ulysse22May 17, 2025You've heard to the male gaze, you've heard of the female gaze. Now try death's gaze. Strong contender for my favorite thing from the festival's opening week. Read the full review and the rest of my Cannes Week 1 recap here.
Thomas FlightJun 5, 2025For my money the best film at Cannes, a collection of vignettes throughout time of women who feel alone but are cosmically intertwined. Mascha Schilinski’s vision of womanhood is steeped in morbidity but endlessly cathartic, with blood and sweat and tears and some images…

- jam jammy jambam is "meh" onSound of Falling
Under a different viewing experience probably would’ve liked it. At surface level it might seem like the 4 stories are not connected, but that’s not the case at all. Film lost me at the stretches where it committed to surrealism. Usually am an appreciator, but it didnt work here
I Dont Want To Tell Youuuuuu is "meh" onSound of Fallingthis is a no i watched it in karlovy vary on the film festival and I haven't even red anything about it do the whole time I was watching it I was trying to make sense to it it still didn't work but if I could watch it again I would watch it differently and everyone was confused

A bravura example of an endangered species: the unapologetically enigmatic, visionary European art film.
