NYFF Review - 'The Inspection' Unearths Empathy in the Trenches of Bootcamp
The film exhibits a respect for the craft and an empathy for human tribulations that have historically been ignored.
SHOOT ME
Tim drifts through a day shadowed by comparison and quiet despair, weighed down by his brother’s success and impending fatherhood. As he becomes aware of the camera following him, private moments turn into observation, and paranoia gives way to defiance. Blending intimate psychological drama with meta-cinema, the film explores vulnerability, surveillance, and the moment a man takes control of the narrative—and the lens—himself.
