So, 'Unnecessary & unurgent' is a short film that really leans into its experimental roots. It’s interesting how Nobuyuki Yamagishi plays with time and space, creating this almost dreamlike atmosphere. The pacing is deliberately slow, which might not be for everyone but definitely sets a tone that invites reflection. You find yourself lingering on the visuals, which are striking despite the limited budget, showcasing some practical effects that add a unique texture. The performances are understated but convey a sort of quiet intensity that stays with you. It’s not a conventional narrative, and that’s precisely what makes it stand out among other short films from the same period.
'Unnecessary & unurgent' has had a bit of a strange journey in terms of distribution, primarily seen in online festivals or niche collections. Its scarcity makes it an intriguing find for collectors, especially those drawn to experimental cinema. The lack of a widely known director adds a layer of mystery, which might pique the interest of those who appreciate films that defy conventional storytelling and structure.
