VENERATION (2023)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Veneration was a ceremony on December 2nd 2023 celebrating queer fashion. The show was created to resemble the human experience - raw, uncomfortable, and very beautiful. The intention for this film was to provide a symphonic introduction to the show. The film represents death and rebirth, ritual and mysticism, reparenting and submission. Through these images, I wanted to honor mother energy, the kind that surrounds us and lives inside us.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
