The realm ‘Oso’ conjures is disturbing, involving, and above all, powerful. The story of the film is about a man called Javi breaking into a house where his daughter lives with her mother.
The protagonist is clearly an unwelcome presence here. The reason behind this circumstance soon becomes clear as the film takes you deeper into its world. The space is marked by the horrors of a monstrous being; if literal for one character, it is metaphorical for another.
The exploration of Javi’s reality, a relative phenomenon existing beyond the area of any definite, monolithic truths, is portrayed with meticulousness and beautiful, albeit disturbing, authenticity. The sound design and the seamless edit become remarkable strengths of the film, ensuring no stone is unturned in presenting to the viewer this extremely unreliable narrator that they cannot help but feel for. The writing, storytelling, and performances further allow the film to be a cohesive whole.
