Im

About This Movie

So, 'Im' is really something else. It sets itself in a future Scotland where democracy takes this bizarre turn—daily referenda that everyone has to participate in. There's this weighty sense of pressure, you know? And the ultimate goal is to make it to IM, which is presented almost like this lofty paradise. The atmosphere feels heavy with existential dread but also a strange glimmer of hope. The pacing can be a bit uneven at times, but it adds to the tension. Practical effects are used here sparingly, yet they create a solid reality that’s pretty engaging. The performances, while not from big names, have this raw quality that makes the whole experience feel oddly intimate. Definitely a unique exploration of governance and societal pressure, and not what you’d expect from typical sci-fi.
