What Is It?

About This Movie

What Is It? is a perplexing piece, really. It’s like stepping into a surreal dreamscape where the narrative is as fragmented as the protagonist's psyche. The young man is drawn into a world where snails and salt become these oddly profound symbols. The pacing can feel disjointed, which mirrors the chaos in his mind. The performances, particularly the inner psyche's voice, are jarring yet strangely captivating. You get this raw, unfiltered glimpse into race and identity, but it’s layered with a fantasy touch that makes you question everything. The practical effects lend an odd texture, a tactile quality that stands out. It's a film that sticks with you, but not always in a comfortable way. Definitely a conversation starter for collectors.
