I Was Possessed by God is a fascinating dive into the mind of Caveh Zahedi, who chronicles his intense experience with hallucinogenic mushrooms. The film's atmosphere is raw and unfiltered, with a personal touch that feels almost confessional. Zahedi's pacing is deliberately meandering, reflecting the disorienting nature of his journey. There’s this unsettling blending of the sacred and the absurd as he navigates his feelings of divine possession. The practical effects are minimal, but the way he captures his inner turmoil feels strikingly real. It’s distinct in how it challenges perceptions of spirituality and mental states, making it more than just a drug narrative but a personal exploration of belief and identity. Quite a unique piece.
