John Merizalde, Filmmaker, New York

Description

This portrait features a tight, high-angle close-up of a young man looking downward in muted, cool lighting. A prominent, textured white graphic resembling shattered glass or static is superimposed across the upper portion of his face, completely obscuring his eyes. Centered within this white graphic are the bold black capital letters spelling out the word INCEL. In the lower left corner, a festival laurel graphic indicates the SXSW 2019 Film Festival alongside credit text attributing the film to John Merizalde. The composition conveys a dark, tense mood with clinical framing and a stark color palette.
