So this film, Minimal Sway While Starting My Way Up, is quite the curious piece. It dives into the life of an intelligent elevator, of all things. The atmosphere feels oddly contemplative, almost philosophical, as it explores the stark contrasts between towering heights of mega-tall buildings and the depths of deep mines. The pacing is reflective, allowing you to absorb the weight of the themes surrounding social and economic dominance, which is pretty compelling. It’s distinct in its approach, mixing visuals that are as striking as they are thought-provoking, though the director remains a mystery. It’s definitely an exploration that’s more about ideas than traditional storytelling, which is refreshing in the documentary space.
