About This Movie

Mileage (2022) presents this eerie little animation that twists the mundane into something deeply unsettling. The pacing has a dreamlike quality, almost lilting, which adds to its surreal atmosphere. It explores themes of isolation and the unknown, the idea of being trapped in a cab with a driver who seems to know far too much. The practical effects are intriguingly blended with the animation style—almost like a mix of shadow puppetry and digital art, which creates this haunting visual language. The performances, though animated, give a real sense of emotional depth, particularly the way the characters grapple with their fears. It’s a unique piece that leaves you contemplating long after the credits roll.
