How to Shoot the Moon is kind of an oddball documentary that digs into the personal lives of four people across different corners of the globe, all united by this simple yet profound act of filming the moon. The aesthetic is raw, with handycams giving it a very personal vibe, almost like you're peeking into their lives. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for introspection amid the backdrop of the night sky. There’s a thread of longing woven throughout—at least one of the filmmakers is navigating love while grappling with their own aspirations. It’s distinct in its use of practical effects, using natural light and authentic sounds, which makes it feel real and heartfelt. A unique exploration of human connection and celestial wonder, it’s definitely something different in the documentary sphere.
