had no idea what this was about and my god I was not ready. a BRUTAL watch that manages to avoid gratuity while staying within service of its greater message. the score by Frederikke Hoffmeier is exceptional and brings so much emotional resonance to the film. sooooooooooooo good but not for the faint of heart!

Magnus von Horn's 'The Girl with the Needle' is a masterclass in tension and atmosphere. The film's exploration of societal pressures on women, the desperation of poverty and the complexities of motherhood is both disturbing and compelling. What did you make of it?

i have such a hard time getting through movies, its brutal and unfortunate. i am fully aware im missing out on some critical pieces of art in consequence, but if isnt both predominantly psychological thriller and as quickly paced as oppenheimer, its super hard to keep me engaged.
i will talk about this movie until the end of time. despite minimal dialogue and the most clinical atmosphere to be captured by means of cinematography, the lack of information and consequential unpredictability kept me thoroughly enticed and fully unnerved for the full two hours. minimalism weaponized for max intensity with no certain direction; epitomization of surrealist thriller.
watching it for the first time without context nor any expectations is an invaluable experience.

Unequivocally the most harrowing film I have ever seen and I cannot get it out of my head….
Deeply disturbing , anxiety inducing, compelling, stomach churning. Shot and written with effective precision, without overkill or gratuitous exploitation. Movies about the human will to survive are hard to do without being either corny or played out and this does follow a similar narrative arc but I really appreciated how it was told. I recommend watching the little docu about the making of the film. I love production. Unbelievable true story and really compelling film
