A young woman has a disjointed bunch of random, weird, episodic encounters with weird people who do random things because it’s artsy, I guess. Seems loosely to be a cheaply-produced attempt at a sort of “Alice In Wonderland”-type tale, but with no rhyme, reason, narrative interest or redeeming artistic qualities. Basically a film student’s idea of an “art” film, or what a Gaspar Noe film would be like if he lost all his filmmaking talent and only hired people who didn’t know how to act. It turns into a music video, then a sitcom spoof, then it’s a youtube video including the logo and controls. People’s wigs fly off their heads while they’re talking, to which they say, “Hair, are you acting up again? Hair!” It has that failed indie film standby, absolutely needless and unexplained video and sound effects inserted at random moments. Things suddenly move in fast or slow motion. It cuts from a flyover of Manhattan to the lead actress just laughing in front of a video background for a minute to scenes of stars and space, all with no explanation rhyme or reason. It breaks into rotoscoped video for a few minutes. How can something try this hard to be different yet do nothing but pile on way too much overfamiliar, clichéd “strangeness”?
