Great ideas but they are not fleshed out!
17 June 2024
I like the versatility of the writing here, as it allows for multiple interpretations. It can be seen as a reflection of depression, childhood isolation, or even as a call for self-exploration, introspection. It can also be viewed as allegorical take on our tendency to hold onto nostalgia and the things that shaped our childhood and teenage years.

Having said that, inspite of having such compelling ideas, none of them realized their full potential, mostly due to the absurdly short duration of the film, it lasted around 90 minutes. The visuals were striking, and all the technical aspects were well-executed, thanks in part to the notable performances of the two leads as well. I have no complaint to make in those regards.

I feel, It is the narrative that would have benefited from more time to establish these concepts in a tangible manner. Perhaps, delving deeper into the psyches of the protagonists could have precipitated a more fitting outcome!
