Gaspar Noé's Vortex is a stark, intimate drama about an elderly couple confronting memory loss, dementia, and the specter of death. Filmed in monochrome, it follows their separate and shared struggles within a single apartment as love, dependence, and time unravel. Through long takes and stark imagery, the film offers a raw meditation on aging, mortality, and human connection, challenging viewers with its unflinching honesty.
