Recollection

About This Movie

So, 'Recollection' is this fascinating animated piece that dives into the experience of East-African Asians during the 1970s. It's not your typical animation – the visuals have a soft, almost dreamlike quality, paired beautifully with a layered ambient score that wraps around you. The pacing is slow, deliberately so, which lets the themes of displacement and memory really sink in. There's a certain weight to the storytelling here, almost like it pulls you into a reflective state. What stands out is the way it captures the essence of nostalgia while addressing such a heavy topic, and the music really enhances that mood. It’s a unique blend of art and commentary, not your usual fare.
