Synopsis
A darkly psychedelic blend of animation and live action evokes a man’s memories of his former schoolmate and “best friend”: a charmer whose outward cool concealed a scary, sociopathic heart. Director Chris Shepherd’s edgy, innovative visuals mirror the story’s increasingly unsettling turns, transforming from cartoon cutesy to nihilistically disturbing.
