Films like The Solitude of Prime Numbers.

The Solitude of Prime Numbers (2010) reads as Heavy, slow-burn, measured drama / supernatural, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, cold. Every film below is ranked by distance across the same twelve hand-scored axes — with what it keeps, and where it walks away. Not a genre dump.
