Directing style
Fleck anchors his character-driven dramas and genre films in a grounded, naturalistic realism, favoring eye-level camera angles and a shallow depth of field that isolates subjects to evoke a tense, lonely interiority. He relies heavily on medium shots and closeups within interior spaces, lighting his scenes with organic sources like direct sunlight, windows, domestic practicals, and harsh fluorescents. The visual palette leans toward cool, desaturated color grades dominated by slate blues, muted teals, and earthy, clay-like grays, punctuated by occasional warm tones and deep shadows.
