Sabrina has just stepped into the bathtub - and slit her veins. and as
her body's slowly drained of blood, memories come up about what has led to
her suicide, that she has accidently killed her boyfriend Romeo (David
Hecimovic) in an argument, and what her good friends Wendy (Lauren
Johnson) and Mazza (Oliver James Damian) might have had to do with it ...
or not, really, as Sabrina's memories soon get hazy and even
contradictory, and at times even take a turn towards the absurd and
surreal ... Now this is certainly a highly unusual movie, for
which reason I also can't guarantee that above synpsis is even mildly
accurate. Thing is, the film doesn't follow a clear narrative structure
but relies heavily on associative storytelling and follows the logic of a
nightmare - and here it's open to interpretation if the film isn't
supposed to be a nightmare to begin with. Basically, the film feels a
little like a puzzle with a few pieces missing - plus a few pieces are
from a totally different puzzle. So in a way a puzzle that can never be
finished - and yet, it's so much fun doing it. And likewise, Death
is a fascinating movie, one that's kept alive by its very unreal feeling,
its weird mix of unease and humour, and its intentionally eccentriy
performances of all the involved - all of which sure makes for a very
enjoyable triplike movie.
