Extravagance

About This Movie

So, ‘Extravagance’ is a documentary that dives into the world of excess and indulgence in a way I've not quite seen before. It has this almost hypnotic pacing, where the visuals draw you in, but you keep questioning the motives behind the glitz. The atmosphere is rich yet unsettling, like a lavish feast that leaves you feeling slightly uneasy. You really get a sense of the impact of consumerism on our lives. There are moments where the practical effects—like the intricate set designs—are just striking, grounding the film in a bizarre reality. Even though the director remains unknown, the performances of the participants are raw, which adds a layer of authenticity that’s sometimes lacking in more polished docs. It’s a unique piece that sticks with you.
