So, 'Can’t Help Myself' is this quirky blend of comedy and drama that meanders through the life of Estere, who sells ice cream by the beach. There's this laid-back vibe, almost meditative, as she navigates her own chaotic search for peace amidst the summer shenanigans of her customers. The pacing feels organic, like a beach day that stretches on. You get these snippets of overheard conversations, which just adds to the surreal quality of the film. The performances, especially by the lead, have this natural, almost improvised feel—very relatable. It’s distinct in how it captures the absurdity of people chasing meaning in everyday moments, and there’s a lightness to it even when touching on deeper themes. Overall, it’s an interesting piece that invites reflection without clobbering you over the head.
