About This Movie

Steps (1987) is Alexis Bisticas's debut short film, and there's a certain rawness to it that really stands out. It has this almost dreamlike quality, blending a mix of surreal imagery with a haunting sound design that keeps you a bit off-balance. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the visuals to linger and create an atmosphere that's both unsettling and intriguing. The practical effects, though modest, are effective in drawing you into its peculiar world. Not much is known about the director, but there's a personal touch in the storytelling that feels unique. It's a curious piece that sparks discussion about early experimental cinema.

Steps has been released in various formats, but it remains relatively scarce, making it a bit of a gem for collectors. There’s a fair amount of intrigue surrounding Bisticas, and this short film often leads to conversations about early experimental works. Its limited distribution adds to its appeal, and collectors often seek it out for its unique aesthetic and place in film history.
