Los Angeles

About This Movie

So, 'Los Angeles' is quite an intriguing piece. It follows Jojo, this young mute girl who believes she's on a divine mission to rescue Baby Jesus, packing angels in a shoe shine kit, which is just such a quirky touch. The road trip vibe is mixed with a tension-filled chase, as she teams up with Cash, an escaped convict. Their chemistry is interesting, you know? The film has this offbeat tone, balancing drama and absurdity. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the audience to soak in the atmosphere of their journey amid the chaos. It’s distinctive, for sure, in its portrayal of faith and desperation, with performances grounding the more surreal moments. A bit of a hidden gem, if you ask me.
