So, 'Insect' is an interesting piece from 2021, even if the director is a bit of a mystery. The animation style really immerses you in this smog-choked city where Pascal, the lead, navigates a foggy world teeming with hidden secrets and peculiar insects. The atmosphere is dense, almost suffocating, which matches the emotional weight of the narrative. You get this sense of dread and intrigue as Pascal uncovers truths that might be better left hidden. There's some clever use of practical effects mixed with animation that gives it a unique look. The pacing has its moments—slow and contemplative, then suddenly tense, which keeps you on your toes. Overall, it’s this darkly whimsical exploration of childhood curiosity and the darker aspects of human nature.
