Plot
In flashbacks, the family joins a cosmic cult that promises salvation on Jupiter
As the past reveals their struggles, their teenage daughter must choose between following her parents into the cult or forging her own path on Earth.. Jupiter Remake (2019).
It is a dizzying landscape and space that borders on science fiction, even psychological horror
"Jupiter" is a meticulously crafted film that manages to immerse us in the inner world of a teenage girl who faces not only the challenges of uncertainty, but also the hardships of her disabled younger brother and her parents' descent into madness. In the discussion after the film, I was struck by the first comment that was one of empathy for the parents.
I even noticed that many adults are no longer helped
I had to counter that in the madness and horror of the world, children are tragically and inexplicably ignored. The director insisted that they must be reintegrated into a „good democratic society“, and even that they are oblivious to their terrible actions (they have good intentions).
Nevertheless, his film feels like an autopsy on the vulnerability of adults in need, but also an ode to children
