a kick for viewer

[Kirpianuscus · 5 June 2023]

The unfair term for define it is surprising. Like realistic.

It is, for me, a perfect crafted religious film, around the simple question what make you human been ?

A precise, clear perspective about a discover, essential. A special encounter. And a radical change. A dialogue defining expectations, certitudes and the fall of an age.

In short, a short Sci Fi working as interogation to viewer. Simple doubts, changing certitudes , proposing not exactly new but useful perspectives and a profound personal answer.

In short, a kick to discover yourself out of cliches or masks. Beautiful crafted, crowned by good seed of reflection end.

Stunning from an upcoming superstar

Wow, just wow!

I recently had the pleasure of watching this short film, and my jaw hit the floor when I heard the speech from the director and producer at the front of the small, Cornish theatre room, telling the audience that it was his first ever effort. As a man who has watched thousands of films throughout his life, I felt it was an utter pleasure to watch the first creation of a young, hip, up and coming director with an incredibly bright future.

The story was a perfect encapsulation of a future which we may well all be living in in the not too distant future. The monotony of daily life was evidenced wonderfully and had me gripped from the very start.

Despite only being 15 minutes long, you would never think it. I could have comfortably sat there for another two hours and enjoyed the journey of an artificial life trying to find its meaning. Encapsulating, emotional and visionary, I have nothing but positive words for this film and its young director.

Bravo, bravo, bravo!
