About This Movie

Istokwa is this intriguing little gem from '96. You know, it’s got that raw, unrefined feel that captures the essence of teenage angst and exploration. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it mirrors the chaos of youth, which I find quite fitting. The boys' journey unfolds in a way that's both relatable and a bit surreal. The atmosphere? It's like a mix of nostalgia and longing, enhanced by some practical effects that ground it in reality. The performances, though not always polished, have this genuine quality that draws you in. It’s really about self-discovery and the bonds of friendship, navigating the complexities of growing up in a world that feels larger than life.
