Scratches of the Soul (2020)

The Radar read

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

Synopsis

Perhaps the richest collection of Macedonian musical heritage is carefully preserved, digitized and archived in the home of the Endendijk family in Sust, the Netherlands. The rich musical collection, collected throughout their lives, is the legacy that the Dutch couple plans to pass on to someone in Macedonia. For years, they have been living with the dilemma of whether there is an appropriate institution to take care of this heritage, given that historical archives are not properly preserved and some are lost forever. The film follows one family's struggle to preserve a part of Macedonian history.

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.
