SEM RASTROS (LEAVE NO TRACE, USA, 2018) – Um dos melhores filmes de 2018, essa produção indie é um drama comovente sobre a relação pai-filha, principalmente pelas atuações marcantes de Ben Foster e Thomasin Mckenzie. This film works on all levels. The cinematography has a docu-drama feel, with hand-held camera-work that intimately observes the father and daughter bond. This is pitched perfectly because of the understated authenticity of performance by Foster and McKenzie. It must have been tempting to dramatize the veteran's trauma but here it is expressed entirely through Foster's eyes and silent stare. McKenzie consumes her role, emerging from the cocoon of adolescence to a butterfly, vibrant, caring, and grounded in self-belief. The dynamic between them is the scaffold that raises the story beyond expectations.
