Window Boy would also like a review.

It seems fitting that a film this puzzling should have a review title as equally uncertain.The trailer drew me in-it looked strange, intriguing, and unpredictable, so I had to watch. And while the film delivered on its promise of originality, I found it difficult to stay with at times. It felt like three films in one, operating on its own internal logic, untethered from conventional storytelling. That's not necessarily a criticism, but it left me unsure where I stood with it. It also lists "comedy" as a genre-really?Visually, it's beautiful. Nearly every shot is framed with a fixed camera, and there's an unpolished elegance to the way it leans into natural or available light. It creates a mood-subtle, minimal, and deliberate. The sound design, too, is remarkably good: restrained, spacious, and clean.As for the narrative-if there is one in the traditional sense-it's elusive. I had no idea where it was going, and just when you think you've grasped something, it shifts. This absence of clear direction can be refreshing, but the pacing tested my patience. Long, lingering shots stretch out scenes that could have said the same thing in half the time. More than once, I found myself fast-forwarding to get through a very long shot without dialogue.It also gave the impression that the editor had been asked to use every piece of footage that was shot. There are scenes that, for me, simply didn't need to be there.One aspect I especially appreciated was the scenes with the villagers-their dialogue around folklore, legends, mystery, and belief. While some might interpret these elements as primitive, I found them refreshing. They reflect something deeply human: the way many of us, in different parts of the world, make sense of events through internal systems of belief. The film doesn't explain or dismiss this-it simply presents it-and that, for me, was one of its more compelling touches.There's a curious stillness throughout. Dialogue is sparse, especially from the lead, and many scenes unfold in silence. It has an eerie, ambiguous atmosphere-somewhere between fantasy and abstraction-but it's difficult to pin down exactly what tone it's aiming for. A more purposeful score might have helped draw out the emotional or thematic undercurrents.I'm still unsure what the title refers to-even after watching to the end. I imagine it might make more sense on a second viewing or with the script in hand, which I'd genuinely like to read.That said, it's a film worth watching, especially if you're drawn to experimental cinema or work that resists easy categorisation. Don't expect a traditional plot. You may not come away understanding it, but you'll likely remember its texture and tone. It's the kind of film you could leave playing in the background-dipping in and out-without ever quite grasping it. But maybe that's the point.I watched it to the end on Kanopy, which is rare for me. Most of my films on other platforms remain half-finished. I stayed with this one, still wondering-right up to the last frame-where it was headed.

it's all a dreamy... mystery...

In an idea, which appears to be borrowed from "being john malkovich", released in 1999, a sailor on a cruise ship (daniel quiroga) finds a mysterious door. Which leads to a condo in an apartment building in montevideo. But there are people already living in that apartment, so it's rather awkward. And when he's in the condo, his co-workers can't find him on the ship! So now he's on probation at work. Beautiful mountain scenery from...? Uruguay, chile, phillipinnes. I'm not familiar enough with the countries to know which scenes were filmed where. Lots of discussion of dreams and curses; the locals are sometimes very afraid to do things because it might be dangerous. Lots of flashbacks to sacrificing various animals to please the gods. Very dramatic ending. It's all... kind of.. connected. Written and directed by alex piperno. Dreamy, trippy. This seems to be quiroga's first and only role. I'm not sure what just happened, but it was a fun adventure.
