A Trip to the Moon

About This Movie

So, A Trip to the Moon from 2017, it's this quiet exploration of adolescence. Tomás, a fourteen-year-old, navigates through the tumult of his coming-of-age, and there's this heavy atmosphere that lingers throughout. The pacing feels like a slow burn, allowing you to really soak in his emotional turmoil and the jarring memories that start to surface. The performances, while from lesser-known actors, are compelling—they really embody the awkwardness and confusion of growing up. There's a dreamlike quality in certain scenes that plays beautifully with the theme of internal conflict. It’s not really about the flashy visuals; it’s more the raw, unsettling feelings that stick with you long after the credits roll.
