Saw this as the final offering of the Borderlines Film Festival, Herefordshire 2024. I attended 10 films.
Audiences for this sort of dross are down to the bare bones now (15 in the cinema tonight) while the website critics continue to wax lyrical about all the fantastic dimensions of this art that remain invisible to us peasants. The Emperor's new clothes spring to mind.
When they refer to "comedic elements" I presume they're referring to the fast-motion bits (presumably an homage to early '70s Benny Hill TV sketches). Yep, Benny got way more laughs than this one.
Modern art films have sadly disappeared up their own bottom. To create you must must be able to communicate - it's a process that involves bouncing ideas around, not sitting in an ivory tower wandering around inside your own mind and mixing in ever decreasing circles of very rarefied humanity pathetically attempting to prop each other up with sycophantism. Meanwhile the rest of us lose interest and wander off.
Downbeat, poorly drawn and drawn out. Every film I saw in this festival could justifiably be described as slow. Storytelling has given way to egotistical rambling. Boring.
