As If

About This Movie

As If (2001) is a curious blend of animation and silent film elements, where the visuals do most of the talking. It’s a love story, but it’s less about dialogue and more about the emotional landscape painted by the animation. The pacing is gentle, allowing you to immerse yourself in this virtual reality world that feels both familiar and surreal. The film has a unique vibe, with an atmosphere that feels like a dream – or maybe a daydream. One can't help but notice the distinct choice of not relying on English, which adds a layer of intrigue. The practical effects in the animation are charmingly simple, yet they evoke a sense of nostalgia. A distinctive piece that sticks in your mind for its unconventional approach.
