15 Days

About This Movie

So, '15 Days' is this quirky little mockumentary by Rodrigo Cortés that dives into the odd life of a guy who lives entirely off TV shopping. The pacing is kind of relentless, reflecting the frenetic energy of late-night infomercials, which makes it both amusing and slightly exhausting. What really stands out is how it explores consumerism—it’s almost a satire on our obsession with getting things, even if just for a couple of weeks. The performances have a raw, spontaneous vibe that fits the mockumentary style. And you can’t ignore the practical effects—they use them cleverly to highlight just how ridiculous some of these products can be. It’s a strange vibe, but that’s part of its charm.

Good representation of early 2000s mockumentary style.Interesting commentary on consumer habits and trial periods.Solid example of practical effects in a comedy setting.
