Lucid

About This Movie

So, ‘Lucid’ is a fascinating little exploration of duality, you know? This girl, she drifts into these contrasting lives whenever she sleeps, and it really digs into themes of identity and perception. The pacing feels deliberate, almost dreamlike at times, which helps amplify that sense of mystery. The practical effects are quite inventive given the budget – they manage to create these surreal landscapes without heavy reliance on CGI, which is refreshing. Performances, though understated, really draw you in; there’s a rawness to them that fits the film's vibe. It’s not your typical drama, and that’s what sets it apart. You’ll notice the atmosphere can shift from eerie to poignant, all while maintaining that thread of introspection.
