Critic Reviews:
This movie makes no sense on paper, and can only be described as a few very distinct moods, but somewhere in the chaos is a movie that I am obsessed with for whatever reason. I know Dawn Breaks Behind the Eyes is not for everyone, and the re-watch value is probably pretty low, but it is so bizarre that you have to respect it.
A technical masterpiece made even richer by a compelling narrative that explores themes of love, loss, jealousy, lust, anger, duality, and the concept of eternity. As Dawn Breaks Behind the Eyes is best viewed blind. Settle in, sit back, and let the film wash over you and transport you to another world.
Like a castle-horror version of Lawrence Michael Levine’s Black Bear, Kopacka’s film tells and retells a familiar, recurring story of male treachery and the trap of patriarchy, re-echoing at different narrative levels.
