Insignificance
“A comedy about life, death, sex, and the Universe... relatively speaking.”
ComedyDrama
Four 1950s cultural icons who conceivably could have met but probably didn't, fictionally do so in this modern fable of post-WWII America. Visually intriguing, the film has a fluid progression of flashbacks and flashforwards centering on the fictional Einstein's current observations, childhood memories, and apprehensions for the future.
VIBE
A bizarre, thought-provoking chamber piece where historical figures grapple with existential questions. It feels like a dream logic fever-pitch, blending intellectual curiosity with a touch of absurdity in a stylized 1950s setting.
