We're Chained

About This Movie

So, 'We're Chained' is this curious little gem from '89 that's really hard to pin down. It has this ethereal quality that runs through it, like a dream you half-remember. The imagery is striking—there’s a photo of a woman and expansive heavenly skies that linger in your mind. The use of Pixies' 'Hey' as its soundscape gives it a sort of surreal, almost rebellious vibe, merging the mundane with the extraordinary. It doesn't rush; it unfolds slowly, letting you soak in its atmosphere. You can feel the weight of its themes about connection and isolation, even if the specifics are a bit hazy. It’s not your typical narrative journey, but that’s what sets it apart.

The film has become somewhat of a rarity among collectors, likely due to its obscure director and undefined genre. It has seen limited releases, making original formats a sought-after item. There isn’t a lot of merchandise or memorabilia associated with it, which adds to its mystique. Collectors often appreciate its unique tone and the way it intertwines music and visuals, reflecting a specific era’s artistic sensibilities.
