Summary
'L'angle mort' (2019), a French drama directed by Patrick Mario Bernard and Pierre Trividic, is an unconventional exploration of the superhero genre. Unlike typical superhero narratives, 'Blind Spot', as it's known in English, presents a melancholic and introspective take on extraordinary abilities. The film follows Dominick, whose power to become invisible offers him no solace or advantage in life. Instead, it becomes a source of struggle and isolation for him. This anti-spectacular approach challenges the usual tropes of superhero cinema.
