Reflections of Evil makes an abrasive stream of sensations into a way of experiencing a hostile everyday world. The image's overload and the sound's insistence are part of its perspective rather than defects to be mentally filtered out. Watch how repetition changes irritation into a larger pattern of anxiety. Its challenge is to remain attentive to a vulnerable subject while the film deliberately makes passive viewing uncomfortable.
