The subtext may not be subtle, but what Moya's film lacks in nuance it makes up for in terms of ambition. Go to Full Review

You have to work your way through it, but if you allow it to overwhelm you, it's really quite striking. Go to Full Review

4/5
A riptide of surrealism runs through Chino Moya's ambitious debut feature, a fantasy suite of tales that don't so much interlock as butt into one another and blurt out alarming, dreamlike correspondences. Go to Full Review

Erin C Jun 8 There may be genius woven through this film. Who knows. But it did not connect with the viewer and that is the primary mission. See more Bob 02/14/2024 Brazil without icing. Or maybe even cake. See more streng g 04/15/2023 "ART"-Movie Thats everthing you need to know. See more Jordan G 03/19/2023 Meandering, with each story bleeding beautifully into the next, we don't spend a lot of time with any particular character. Instead, the stories told each add unique insight in building a bleak, yet authentic, world. See more Jeffrey P 03/13/2023 The dystopian setting is interesting but that is all you're given time to be interested in. Too many different stories without proper build and too quickly paced to connect with any of them. The ‘glue' holding it all together isn't very good, almost non-existent. See more 12/31/2022 Overall, this might be a real treat if you seek a sci-fi story that attempts to be quite dark with its visuals, humour, and drama. It's a film that contains various characters and stories that all have one thing in common- tragedy and sad consequences. Some characters throughout are generally interesting, but with no conclusion ever given for the vast majority of them, I found my time, for the most part, to be wasted. I was left questioning the purposes of this film and feeling rather disappointed. See more Read all reviews
