Like Baywatch Nights directed by Maya Deren, DREAM TEAM is a surrealist feature-length comedy from critically acclaimed cult filmmakers Lev Kalman and Whitney Horn (L for Leisure, Two Plains and a Fancy). The film takes place in 1997, and follows Chase and No -- two Interpol agents with a hot, barely platonic relationship, as they follow the thread of a coral smuggler's mysterious death. The investigation leads the agents down a rabbit hole, revealing a surreal international conspiracy involving utopian basketball leagues, sensual scientists, and a psychic network of coral reefs. Helping the agents are K and Venice, two graduate students who split their free time studying experimental dance and interning at Interpol; agent Midnight Shadow, operating out of Mexican Wine Country; and Hard Karl, a possibly evil, definitely pervy invisible man. As their investigation deepens, the agents discover that the boundaries between animate and inanimate, local and distant, and mind and body, are blurring in weird and menacing ways.

Alissa Wilkinson New York Times Vitality only flourishes in cinema when artists can experiment — and when they can dare to make a movie not everyone will like. Nov 21, 2024 Full Review J. Kim Murphy Variety [Reshapes] itself every few minutes with a new surrealistic flourish, and seemingly no particular destination mapped out. Playful as that can be, the film often comes across like a private joke. Nov 17, 2024 Full Review Christian Zilko indieWire In some ways, Dream Team feels like a self-fulfilling prophecy. By leaning into its low effort, too-cool-to-care aesthetic, it subliminally tells audiences that anyone offering substantial criticisms is just a square who didn’t get it. Rated: C Nov 17, 2024 Full Review Leonardo Goi The Film Stage By the time Dream Team comes to its enigmatic ending, the journey has accrued a disorienting power––it’s the vertigo that comes from watching a film fearlessly pushing against the limits of what can be told, and how.
