Which movie am I gonna watch tonight?
Blindness
2008
Directed by Fernando Meirelles

This is not your usual catastrophe movie, if you can even call it that.
But I guess it would be in its genre since it’s about an epidemic, a blindness epidemic to be precise.
But the movie is also artsy and has a strange and very different plot to the usual movies of its kind. It is also quite shocking and has a roughness to it that is not expected when starting to watch the film.
And what I always think when I see them is: when the world is going under or you’re all alone on this planet, go somewhere south and live on the country side you’ll have it easier there!
Oh and by the way I didn’t really get the ending, can anyone explain?
