About This Movie

2+1= is a curious little gem that dives into the oddities of daily existence. The animation style is quite unique, blending simple yet expressive character designs with a somewhat surreal color palette. It creates this dreamlike atmosphere that complements its themes of paradoxes well. Not a fast-paced affair; the rhythm feels almost contemplative, allowing you to soak in the visuals and ideas. The way everyday situations are portrayed, yet twisted into something unexpected, showcases a cleverness that isn't often seen in mainstream animation. Chernova's direction gives it a distinct flavor, and there's an underlying philosophical tone that lingers after the credits roll, making you ponder those little absurdities we often overlook.
