An ambiguous experimental tale with artistic symbolism.
4/5

Review

Kato Wong’s experimental short film is a captivating and mysterious exploration of companionship, mental health, and feminine empowerment. Starring Wong as the central protagonist, the film takes viewers on an unconventional journey through a London woodland, with Chay Faraday-Brown and Soni Bhalla co-starring.

From the start, Wong’s character sets out on a search for companionship, but the narrative is anything but straightforward. Instead, the film is heavily ambiguous, with surreal and mysterious elements that keep the viewer engaged throughout. The use of feminine colors adds another layer of symbolism to the narrative, making for a truly multi-dimensional artistic expression.

Varvara Truhana and Mike Osaer’s cinematography is masterful, capturing the action with polish and precision. The visuals are both arresting and effective, creating a distinctive atmosphere that draws the viewer in.

It’s worth noting that this experimental tale may not appeal to everyone, as it deliberately avoids providing easy answers or neat resolutions. However, for those who appreciate more challenging, thought-provoking works of art, this short film certainly delivers. The acting is great across the board, with each performer bringing a unique energy and presence to their role.

All in all, Wong’s experimental short film is a powerful artistic expression that succeeds in evoking a wide range of emotions, from confusion and suspense to empowerment and reflection. Highly recommended to anyone seeking something more adventurous and unconventional within the world of short film.
