Electra

About This Movie

Electra is a curious exploration of childhood and self-discovery. It has this surreal, almost nightmarish atmosphere that really sticks with you. The animation style is quite distinctive; it's not your typical polished fare. Instead, it feels raw and visceral, matching the themes of body image and sexuality. The pacing can be disorienting, mirroring Electra's fragmented memories as she navigates her 10th birthday in this bizarre, fantastical realm. The use of practical effects in creating those bizarre dolls and unsettling body parts adds an extra layer of unease. It’s a film that lingers in the mind, causing you to reflect long after it’s over.
