Benjamin
Simon Amstell, 2018, UK, 85 min
In this charming romance, Benjamin is a young filmmaker in London, boyishly handsome, awkwardly brilliant, full of self-doubt. He must navigate the pretentious local arts scene to build his career, and his love life sucks. He bogs himself and others down in obscure philosophical banter. But it’s just a defense mechanism that takes an even younger man’s charm to disrupt. This dark comedy is a movie for and about geeks — and for people who love them.
