Absentia2017

The Fear Score take

Absentia works on the nerves slowly, seeding doubt into every reunion and reflection. The dread here is psychological—a woman rebuilding a life while unsure which of her memories can be trusted. Paranoia tightens by the episode, and the terror comes less from violence than from the creeping suspicion that no one, including yourself, is safe to believe.

• —Trust erodes with every scene
• —Memory becomes its own threat
• —Paranoia builds slowly, relentlessly
