About This Movie

Becoming Plant is a fascinating dive into the intersection of movement and consciousness. It captures six dancers as they engage in a unique therapeutic experiment, exploring the boundaries of their physical and mental states under the influence of psychedelics. The atmosphere is one of vulnerability, tension, and raw exploration, with each dancer's performance revealing layers of emotional truth. The pacing feels organic, almost like an unfolding meditation, as they navigate their relationships with each other and the environment around them. The practical effects are minimal yet impactful, enhancing the sense of immersion into this shared experience. It’s not just about the choreography; it’s about how these individuals connect with themselves and the 'plant's consciousness'. Quite distinctive in its approach, really.
