Un peu court et pas assez développé mais preuve qu’on fait encore des bons films en France

A lot of intersting ideas varying from sci fi, horror, drama, and coming of age. It just couldn’t figure out which idea it wanted to be.
Really cool score and soundtrack. Also some pretty gorgeous cinematography this just has nothing to latch on to, it’s just fine.

I had low expectations for this movie as I had never heard of this movie prior to me buying the ticket, but I was pleasantly surprised! It feels a bit undercooked but I think this is something special

i thought this was very sweet and interesting (that one scene had me cheering as it was decidedly not sweet but deserved)

we're all hostages, and we're all bastards.
This was such a beautiful display of the way grief can consume you - control you, take your life hostage.
Asking the audience, how far would you really go to get those you've lost back? What if it meant the lives of others? What if this sadness was already taking your own life?
Featuring a strong and emotionally charged performance from Megan Northam as Elsa, discovering after much fighting that - you have to live, even while wishing for a life where absence didn't feel so present, so heavy. You have to live, even if all you wish for is a dream where that even feels possible.
