The Slow Business of Going

About This Movie

The Slow Business of Going, directed by an unknown hand, offers a unique blend of adventure and comedy through the lens of Petra Going, a migrant cyborg. The film navigates the intriguing premise of the Global Nomad Project, where these 'receivers' traverse the globe, collecting experiences. It’s quirky, you know? The pacing oscillates between contemplative moments of solitude and vibrant interactions, creating a rich atmosphere. The practical effects have this charming, low-fi quality that enhances its whimsical tone. The performances, particularly that of the lead, are unexpectedly nuanced, capturing the essence of a being caught between two worlds. It’s a curious exploration of identity, technology, and human connection, all wrapped in a slightly absurdist package.
