The Ordovicians

About This Movie

The Ordovicians is quite a peculiar piece, you know? It leans into this strange, almost eerie vibe, reminiscent of those old nature docs—like they took a trip to Mars instead of Earth. The animation is twitchy, often surreal, which gives it a disjointed feel that keeps you on edge. There's a sense of exploration, but not the usual kind; it feels like wandering through a lost world. The pacing is slow, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the odd visuals. It's not about traditional storytelling or characters. Instead, it’s an experience, diving into themes of evolution and the bizarre. If you appreciate experimental animation, this one definitely stands out for its distinctive approach.
