Across & Down is this intriguing documentary that takes a unique approach to storytelling. It's not your typical film; it plays with the idea of riddles and puzzles woven into the fabric of Ugandan culture. The juxtaposition of Super-8 film with crossword puzzles creates an atmosphere that's both chaotic and serene at times. You get lost in the layers of meaning, where the simplicity of the visuals clashes with the complex ideas presented. Frame by frame, you feel this rhythm that almost lulls you, yet it’s peppered with moments of unexpected insight. It’s a bit of a head-scratcher, but that's part of the charm, and definitely sets it apart from anything conventional.
