Natural Selection

About This Movie

Natural Selection is a quirky blend of comedy and drama that captures a unique slice of life. The film dives deep into the labyrinth of family and identity, wrapped in an offbeat narrative. The pacing can feel leisurely at times, almost reflective, which complements the protagonist's journey from her stifled existence into the chaotic world of her husband’s secret. The performances are genuinely engaging, with a standout delivery from the lead, who brings a mix of naivety and determination. The atmosphere is laden with a slightly surreal quality, especially with the characters one encounters, including the mullet-headed son. It’s a film that plays with themes of faith, fertility, and self-discovery, making it distinct in its exploration of the unconventional.
