The film that forgets its main character: Unabomber

Ted Kaczynski’s life holds enough questions for cinema to want to return to it again and again. Netflix’s “Unabomber” approaches the same story this time through the psychological experiments of his youth. In the film, however, what Kaczynski wrote and why is pushed aside by his style. While following the traces of the character it takes as its subject, Metz’s film does all it can to avoid actually meeting him.
