Forgetting Space

About This Movie

Forgetting Space is a curious blend of horror, mystery, and thriller. The film crafts a rather claustrophobic atmosphere, centering on Xiaoyu, a solitary figure who grapples with her unremarkable existence. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the tension to build as she encounters ghosts who demand her assistance—a pretty unique twist on the typical supernatural premise. The practical effects, though not groundbreaking, manage to create a tangible sense of dread. Performances are a mixed bag but Xiaoyu’s portrayal of both vulnerability and determination stands out. The film explores themes of regret and fulfillment in a way that feels, if not entirely fresh, certainly engaging. It's one of those pieces that invites discussion among collectors, especially when considering its approach to the afterlife narrative.
