Editor’s note: A brief editor’s note on Fabula (2025): It leans into its Comedy, Crime, Fantasy roots without feeling derivative. Michiel ten Horn keeps the storytelling tight, favoring character beats over empty flash. Standout turns from Fedja van Huêt, Sezgin Güleç, Livia Lamers keep it engaging even in quieter stretches. The 2h 5m runtime suits the material; scenes land without dragging. Solid if imperfect—its strengths outweigh a few rough edges. “Who or what is punishing me?!” sums up the film’s focus better than most trailers do. Worth a watch for the craft alone, even beyond the genre appeal.
