All Good

An experimental mime film about homelessness and loneliness.
4/5

Review

Directed by Albert Ghazaryan and Yura Kirakosyan, from a script by Hayk Paytyan, ‘All Good’ is an experimental short film which is centered around the performance art of the main character (Hayk Paytyan). The narrative is conveyed through mime-artistry, without any character dialogue, and explores themes of loneliness and homelessness. Set entirely in one-location, the film has a somber underbelly as it attempts to examine the character’s internal despair. ‘All Good’ is a triumphant creative achievement with a profound portrayal by Hayk Paytyan.

The 5-minute film opens with a lone figure, the sole character, walking through an out-of-town field somewhere in Armenia. A picturesque background engulfs the pursuing performance – which consists of classic mime-artistry of a homeless man living a fanciful existence. Accompanying the protagonist’s performance, the film utilizes sound effects to aid the character’s imagination and viewer comprehension.

Ghazaryan and Kirakosyan have created a charming film with glorious cinematography from start-to-finish. The production quality (including sound and post-production) is top-notch, which is certain to keep viewers engaged with the peculiar narrative. Hayk Paytyan is a thrill to watch – his puzzling, albeit adept, portrayal is highly captivating and entertaining. Without spoiling the concluding plot, the film is largely poignant with a taste of comical ingenuity throughout. Highly recommended.
