    Feels like the first film ever made, or the last film ever made, the only film ever made.

    Like discovering Obayashi or Ruiz for the first time. An incredibly prescient film about mind and life, human and nonhuman, thinking and feeling. Something like a "cognitive romanticism" where the scientific and the affective play off one another (à la Mon Oncle d'Amerique); crystalline reflections between cosmology, ecology and psychology (the lack of a 'social' world is deeply strange and intriguing).
