“It's just a game...”

FantasyAdventureHorror

This film feels like falling into a glitching 80s computer game, where the familiar world slowly dissolves into a surreal, eerie landscape. It's a disorienting journey through a dreamlike digital realm, tinged with anxiety and a strange, unsettling wonder, all wrapped in a distinct retro-futuristic aesthetic.
