Hatice Askin film HOUSE WITH NO ADDRESS is really a disgrace for every festival that screens it. Instead of burying it deep or shelving it, they trick people into expecting a dystopian world and a story that has emotional and intellectual resonance while the only thing that they actually get is poorly understood Kafka and most of all Lanthimos.
I am not a huge Lanthimos fan, truth be told, but he is a respectful director whose work should be taken seriously. I am saddened every time I see a film like this Hatice Askin work which shows how many awful things came out of his success.
Production design is sterile and even some of the Turkish soaps have more exciting visuals than this film. Acting is wooden and performed by actors who lack any discernible charisma.
This film is witless and most unfortunately rather dull not just in terms of rhythm but also in terms of tech credits.
Only the completists who write some historical and theoretical overviews of dystopia in cinema need to see this. Others beware!
