So It Was With Us

About This Movie

So It Was With Us, from 2012, is this intriguing piece that really dives into a sense of mystery, albeit a bit of a contrived one. The story revolves around a young man who finds himself caught up in the aftermath of these burning rocks falling from the sky—there's a surreal quality to it all. The pacing is quite deliberate, allowing the tension to build slowly, which adds to the overall atmosphere of unease. It's interesting how the practical effects, while not groundbreaking, lend a certain tactile quality that enhances the experience. Performances feel grounded, almost raw, and the film doesn’t shy away from exploring themes of isolation and curiosity. It’s distinctive in how it blends the ordinary with the bizarre.
