Mad from the Sun offers a raw and haunting exploration of memory and loss. The film's atmosphere is thick with nostalgia, almost suffocating at times, as Miina is thrust back into her teenage years. The pacing can feel a bit disjointed, mirroring the fragmented nature of her memories. The performances are understated yet deeply affecting, particularly in the way Miina navigates her feelings for Lukas amidst such unsettling circumstances. The practical effects, like that bloody ear, serve as a jarring reminder of how the past can intrude upon the present. It's a unique blend of the surreal and the deeply personal, capturing the ache of first love and the scars it leaves behind.
