Films About Loneliness: There are times when you’re happy but suddenly something happens deep within your brain and you snap out. You feel different, unhappy, confused and lost. All hopes die in a second. All you can feel is loneliness waiting for you in the corner of your room with open arms. And all you can do is to embrace it. You cannot fight loneliness, you can accept it though.
However, people have different ways of coping up with loneliness, getting through it. My way is watching movies that blend well with haunting beauty and raw emotion. Whether through stark visuals or poignant silences, these cinematic journeys transform isolation into art. I am going to share my watchlist from days like these.
