Great short Chicken Broth Soup screens at the New Jersey Film Festival on Friday, January 24, 2025

It all starts with the buzzing of a fly. A woman with a cut on her lip stands crying while waiting in a hallway to see the body of her dead husband. The architecture surrounding her is uninviting. The coloring of the world is bleak, cold. The characters around her are careless and dismissive - a disinterested prosecutor who’s too preoccupied with his own phone calls, and a straight-faced doctor who clinically goes through the motions, step by step. What is the right thing to do in a world surrounded by impassion? What is fair? Is there really nothing one can do in a situation so hopeless? Or is that just an excuse to turn a blind eye? Like a persistent, buzzing fly, these questions prod and force us to jolt out of our comfortable seats while watching Chicken Broth Soup - directed and written by Deniz Büyükkırlı, who is known for her previous work on Pretty Little Liars (2015), Brave and Beautiful (2016), and Love Me As I Am (2013).

When beginning to craft their film, one of the many decisions a filmmaker must make surrounds the grounding of the film, i.e. how many characters, settings, and scenes their film will contain. Often, one might think a more busy and complex film would be best. However, it can also occur that the more subtle and approachable simpler films can become extremely layered and interesting in their fashion. This principle applies to many films but is especially present in Ezekiel Goodman and Hannah Zipperman’s Sylvia, and Samuel Edelsack’s You Still Can, both films that stray away from a more expansive and grand in scale style and instead turn towards a more intimate style that allows viewers to sit in its presence and characters through its usage of specific dialogue styles, color palettes, and music presence.
