Ted, an unlikable office manager, is one day kidnapped by Jeremy and forced to play-act his dead brother David. Slowly gaining Jeremy's confidence, Ted discovers his captor's true intentions and makes a plan to escape. In The Flesh is an uncompromising perspective into loss and how grief can affect a person’s actions. The film places its viewers in a chamber of isolation, providing an immersive experience which allows us to feel for these characters and their very different positions. By making the decision for Jeremy to right his wrongs by reliving the moment director Connor Doyle provides an arch whereby the character is optimistic to find some solace. The story unfolds at a natural pace, with no forced narrative, distracting editing or overplayed score. Instead, the direction allows our leads to breathe life into both the characters, and their exceptional circumstance. This restraint is both masterful and refreshing, particularly in a genre that’s overrun with rushed filmmaking. In The Flesh is available now on Amazon Prime. I would highly recommend everyone take 40 minutes out of their day to check it out.
