About This Movie

Milkyway (2020) presents a haunting exploration of solitude and connection. The film begins with a car theft, but it quickly morphs into something more ethereal. The young man and the woman, draped in a white sheet, embark on a surreal journey that's both intimate and dreamlike. The pacing teeters between tense and reflective, with an atmosphere thick enough to cut. The cinematography, though low-budget, captures the night with a stark beauty that enhances the emotional weight. It's distinct in its minimal dialogue, relying heavily on performances and visual storytelling, which might not resonate with everyone, but that’s part of its charm. The themes of escape and longing linger long after the credits roll.
