Anons

On the outlook, Anons is an improvement over Fazil Coskun's previous film Yozgat Blues, adding a stylish noir type cinematography, but it's a step back narratively lacking the former's soul. The "frigid" colour palette creates a cohesive visual format to reflect the deadpan facial impressions of military men plotting a coup, not to forget the 'Frigidaire' metaphor as well. Still, absent-mindedness of the melancholic characters and arbitrariness of the shoved events squanders to constitute absurdism and comes off as a dish too cold to consume, too deserted to affect, leaving the audience as indifferent towards the film as the men in uniform are towards the plight of the coup.
