Tamagotchi

About This Movie

Tamagotchi (2019) is a curious blend of drama that captures the essence of disconnecting from the digital age. Laura’s decision to shut down her internet feels almost like a rebellion against the norm, and through her journey, we meet Agatha, whose chemistry with Laura is palpable yet tender. The pacing is contemplative, allowing moments of silence to linger while you soak in their surroundings, which adds to the film's cozy atmosphere. There’s this underlying theme of life being pre-programmed, much like the toys it references. The performances are grounded, almost raw at times, which gives it an authentic feel. It’s distinctive in its approach to love and connection in a world that feels increasingly artificial.
