VIBE

This is a deeply unsettling, dread-soaked psychological slow-burn. It feels like a descent into a fractured mind, blending melancholic realism with eerie, surreal stop-motion artistry. The atmosphere is claustrophobic, exploring themes of grief and artistic obsession with a creeping sense of dread that will linger long after the credits.
