Connected (2017) explores a world where technology has created a chasm between people, and it’s both haunting and oddly relatable. The atmosphere is thick with a sense of isolation, punctuated by moments of wonder as the young protagonist discovers the richness of human interaction. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to dwell in this near-future environment, contemplating the cost of convenience. Performances lean toward the subtle, which enhances the message—it's not just about what we say, but how we connect. Practical effects here are minimal but effective, emphasizing the story rather than overshadowing it. It’s distinctive for how it mirrors our current reality, pushing viewers to reflect on their own relationships with technology.
Connected has seen limited release, making it a bit of a hidden gem for collectors. Its unique exploration of technology's impact on human interaction gives it a certain cultural relevance that resonates more each year. As for formats, it primarily exists on digital platforms, with a few physical releases that are somewhat scarce, drawing interest from those who appreciate thought-provoking indie films. Given its themes and the current societal landscape, it’s likely to continue gaining traction among collectors who value narrative depth.
