How a Kite Flies

About This Movie

So, 'How a Kite Flies' is one of those oddball gems that sticks with you. It’s a blend of comedy and drama that feels fresh, even with its unique premise. The idea of Sir Ian McKellen voicing an alcoholic kite? Wild, right? The film gives off this gritty, almost melancholic vibe, contrasting memories of happier times with the protagonist's current state of disarray. It’s all about that inner struggle and the yearning for freedom, which is compelling. The pacing's a bit unconventional, but it works. You get lost in the character’s journey, and McKellen's voice work really brings that kite to life, if you can believe it. Definitely a unique piece in any collection.
