| User ReviewEric RZeynep works as a housekeeper at the motel. She never smiles and has a very cold, distant disposition about herself. There is a boy, Mustafa, who pines for her affection, but she openly rejects it. Zeynep is alienated and alone. She lives with her father in a small house and we come to learn that the brunt, if not all, of this depression comes from her abusive father. Angel's Fall is a beautiful film that illustrates the design of fate which exists in this mystical existence. It's the definition of a character study, as we see this girl struggle mightily with the demons in her life. It's a slow paced film that explores all the details of Zeynep's life. The film never ventures into self-pity though, as Zeynep is clearly someone who is looking for redemption from the shame she has been put through at the hands of her father. There are countless scenes where she visits the mausoleums, participating in various prayers and rituals, desperately trying to save herself from this fate. The film features almost no music at all as if the director didn't' want tot give us any possible feelings or emotions outside of what we see in Zeynep. The home in which she lives in with her father is very cold and stagnate. The two of them rarely ever have a conversation and the mundane cold cinematography helps to encapsulate this alienated state. The film never even comes close to being manipulative and deals with the sexual abuse sequence in a very natural yet absolutely horrifying way. The scene that sticks out for me is when young Zeynep lies in bed awake, and slowly hears her father coming down the hall towards her room. It's a very minimalistic sequence, yet it's incredibly intense and unbearable. In the end, the film doesn't really give us much answers after her fate seemingly changes for the better. As Zeynep stands on the balcony completely naked, we don't truly know if this is rebirth for her, or if nothing has actually changed. |
