The Assent

A great Existentialist film. I will only write a short para on it as most people watched it in the lecture last week.

AS we said the week before some existentialist films are pretty weird, and the assent was no exeption. Angles watching how we live from above is a strange concept to think of and to think about how they would percieve us is intersting. These Angles have no idea about anything we do or the reasons for doing so. The existentialist part comes in where one angel talks about he doesnt feel like he exists because all he does is watch people. He is envious on how people on the world can feel and experience emotions and tasks, as it means they have a history.

Overall it was a good film. If anyone didnt watch it i would recommend it to see a good tke of an existentialist film.
