About This Movie

Flutterby is an introspective drama that digs deep into the psyche of a young man grappling with profound existential dread. The tone is heavy yet oddly poetic, with a pacing that feels almost meditative at times. You can sense the raw emotion in the performances, particularly how the lead captures that deep-seated turmoil and confusion. It’s not flashy, but the practical effects used in dream sequences add a layer of surrealism that complements the narrative. The thematic exploration of identity and self-worth makes it distinct in a sea of coming-of-age stories. There’s an authenticity to its portrayal of self-hatred, which may resonate on a personal level for many viewers.
