Pi
Pi is a Psychological Thriller by Darren Aronofsky, about "A paranoid mathematician searches for a key number that will unlock the universal patterns found in nature."[iMDb]
It shares a number of features with our film, including shooting in black and white and being in the psychological thriller genre. It also explores similar themes in regards to narrative, as our film also explores obsessiveness and how it effects the mind, leading to mental downfall.
The Machinist
"An industrial worker who hasn't slept in a year begins to doubt his own sanity." [iMDb]
The machinist is another psychological thriller that is similar to our film. It again explores obsessiveness and how if effects the mental state, but the narrative is quite a bit more convoluted than Pi, which is another similarity with our film. Although not in black and white, The Machinist uses very bleak and very little colour throughout, so this is somewhat similar to our film.
Note: No clips of The Machinist on youtube, only could find a fan made trailer.
