That’s the story. But the film doesn’t show you how the story unfolds. Instead, you encounter its characters alone in a black void, staring into the camera’s lens. Their faces are the film’s landscapes. They report on the lives they are forced to live and the harrowing world that we’ve imagined for them. THE VIEW FROM ABOVE is a film that asks spectators to confront the brutal, misogynist and white-supremacist ideologies of the stories we consume as entertainment. It seeks to reveal the role that so many contemporary thrillers force audiences to play and invites them to regret learning their lines.
