Atlantis, directed by Ben Russell, really takes you on this cerebral journey, exploring the concept of Utopia through a unique lens. It’s not your typical documentary; it weaves Plato’s myth of Atlantis with the quirky vibes of 1970s sci-fi pulp. The pacing is deliberately slow, letting you absorb the visuals and the philosophical musings. The atmosphere feels almost dreamy at times, with striking visuals that pull you into this lost world. And the way Russell plays with the source material gives it a distinctive feel, almost like he's crafting a visual essay. It’s fascinating how he connects those threads; you can sense the layers of thought behind every frame. Definitely a film that stays with you long after it ends.
