Monkey Man: In the Covid World

About This Movie

So, 'Monkey Man: In the Covid World' is this quirky short mockumentary that really captures the absurdity of our times. It follows this peculiar character, Monkey Man, who's like a surreal reflection of many of us—lost in a chaotic, darker world. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it works for the humor, which is this blend of awkward and poignant. The practical effects, while minimal, add a nice touch to the overall aesthetic. The performances are raw and relatable, bringing a sense of authenticity that's often hard to find in today's films. It’s definitely got that indie vibe, which sets it apart from the mainstream comedies. Quite the oddball piece, really.
