The extraordinary thing about all the scenes is that they are filmed in such different ways to reflect the characters. The shakiness makes you wanna go with the flow of taking each moment as it comes, while sprinkling it with one particular type of humour; sarcasm, maybe, a little dry and at times too stupid not to laugh about it. This is that moment when you elaborated on your cheese grating skills to a level that only art can reach, when your environment suggests that you should be only caring for famous name throwing while upholding the posture and professionalism of an uptight interview; for a job that you will hate but will help you progress if you kiss that ass well. Opposite to these acts of presenting there are steady scenes of restlessness and endless things to be done which are intentionally almost stereotypical of business meetings, business women, business parties and more business. The camera sometimes just seems to not move, while father and daughter are confronting each other on those unsolvable and un–absolute, unanswered philosophical and existential questions.
Thank you.
Enjoy.
