Like Holy Motors, this one is rooted in figuring out who you are and longing. They share the same lens on old ways vs. new world. Same energy: dark comedy, surreal, and dreamlike.
We follow 24 hours in the life of a being moving from life to life like a cold and solitary assassin moving from hit to hit.
