Anima

About This Movie

Anima is quite a gem from Ana Cristina Barragán. This short film brings an intimate and almost ethereal quality to its storytelling. The pacing is slow, almost languid, allowing viewers to really soak in the atmosphere. It delves into themes of identity and connection, with a tone that's both haunting and reflective. The performances are understated yet impactful, leaving a lingering impression. You can tell there’s a lot of thought in the practical effects used, adding a tangible quality to the visuals. It's not your typical short; it feels like a piece of art that invites interpretation. You might find yourself contemplating it long after it's over.
