'Meshes of the Afternoon' Enters the Realm of Sci-Fi
Many have interpreted Maya Deren’s Meshes of the Afternoon as a dream sequence, but what if the repetitive scenes we are given are not dreams but, a time loop.
Mousetrap
Lizzie is struggling to make ends meet. She lives with constant anxiety about the strong reputation she must maintain before the people surrounding her. She is crippled by the cost of living in the modern Irish society, bore down by the prices of the inhalers she needs to breathe. Lizzie finds herself manipulating her way around the money problems in her life, hurting others and herself in the process. This is all done to avoid the acceptance of help from her wealthy family, who value money and class far too much for Lizzie to ignore it. Her determination to avoid this so-called failure pushes her to the edge, until she can no longer hide from the truth of her struggles.

In all actuality, “Just Mercy” should be labeled a “wall punching narrative.” Constantly, the flick throws high forms of adversity our way, amping up our most inner levels of discomfort. Filmmaker Destin Daniel Cretton wonderfully paces the film in such a way that replicates the slow-burn nature of justice.
