The Damned

All-Time Favorites • 1h 28m

Directed by Roberto Minervini | 88 mins | 2024
Roberto Minervini followed his staggering Deep South missive "What You Gonna Do When the World’s On Fire?" (2018) with this heady time capsule from the American Civil War’s Western front, for which he took home Un Certain Regard’s Best Director prize at Cannes 2024. Though "The Damned" is Minervini’s so-called first feature narrative venture, it shares in the immediacy of his non-fiction work: a work of rough-hewn and probing poetry, shot sequentially and without a script.
