Life Is Not Short Enough
September. 23,2023
Filmmaker Joey Benistant started filming his life at the age of 17, when his parents gave him a camera for his birthday. He started making jackass style video's with his friend from high school. In the beginning they have a lot of fun, but Joey sees his best friend Matthijs slipping away in excessive drinking and drug use in the years that follow. As Joey and his friends navigate their way through education or work, things are going the other way with Matthijs. This does not scare Joey away, he continues to visit his friend and he continues filming, even in the darkest moments of his existence. Joey tries to get Matthijs to join in his enthusiasm for life. The film shows you how difficult this is when someone is determined not to live past 30.
Reviews
Such a frustrating disappointment
If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
