Columbus

“Kogonada’s *Columbus* is a masterclass in visual stillness, using the clean lines of modernist architecture to frame a deeply empathetic exploration of duty and stalled ambition. With luminous, understated performances from John Cho and Haley Lu Richardson, the film functions as a quiet meditation on how our surroundings shape our emotional landscapes. It is an essential watch for fans of slow-burn character studies and those who find beauty in the intersection of structural design and human vulnerability.”
