So, 'Forget All You Know (About Aliens)' is quite an intriguing piece, right? It mixes Afro futurism with this documentary flair, which is not something you see every day. The story unfolds through these archival clips that make it feel like you're peering into a different reality. The protagonist, Ella, embodied by an alien presence named Xoxo, navigates themes of safety and freedom, or the lack thereof, across a bunch of culturally rich settings—Ghana, Curaçao, Suriname, and the Netherlands. The pacing is a bit unconventional, meandering through Ella's experiences, which might not appeal to everyone but definitely adds to the overall atmosphere. You can really feel the weight of her journey, and the practical effects they use to blend the alien perspective with human struggles is just fascinating. The performances have this rawness that adds depth to the narrative's themes.
