This intimate story of solitude and love follows Sara, a 29-year-old single woman working as a secretary at a military office. She is constantly surrounded by men, yet she has not found a partner yet. She meets the gallant, graceful, and soft-faced Martin, but when Sara wants to take their relationship to a deeper and more physical level, Martin shies away. He is hiding a secret grave enough for them both. Shot in colour on Super 16 film, the film’s storytelling relies on minimal dialogue, beautifully stylised mise-en-scène, carefully set up compositions and framing, each one like a painting to be savoured. An intimate psychological drama about secrets, family, commitment, identity, gender, and societal norms, Nobody Likes Me is Czech filmmaking duo Petr Kazda and Tomáš Weinreb’s second film, which had its world premiere at Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival in the Critics’ Picks section.
