Flea Sings

About This Movie

So, Flea Sings is this intriguing experimental short from 1991 that feels like a window into a very distinctive artistic vision. The atmosphere it creates is almost dreamlike, and you can sense the unorthodox pacing throughout, which keeps you slightly on edge. It’s less about a narrative and more about a collection of moods and textures, which is kind of refreshing in a sea of conventional storytelling. The practical effects are minimal but effective, adding a tactile quality that’s hard to shake off. It's the kind of film that draws you in, makes you ponder, and stays with you in a way that defies easy explanation.

Flea Sings is quite rare in the collector's circle, mainly due to its ephemeral nature and the fact that it’s an experimental work. It hasn't seen many releases, making it a bit of a treasure for those who appreciate unique short films. The preservation by the Academy Film Archive in 2016 has sparked renewed interest, but it's still not something you come across often at traditional shops or markets.
