Pipe Dream

About This Movie

Pipe Dream (2023) dives deep into the psyche of CHI, a character lost in his own personal darkness. The film's tone is heavy, almost oppressive, wrapping you in a thick atmosphere of despair. Pacing feels deliberate, allowing moments to linger, which amplifies the emotional weight of his struggles. The practical effects are sparse but impactful, reinforcing the stark reality of his plight. Performances are raw and unrefined, with actors bringing a visceral authenticity to their roles. What stands out is how the film confronts internal battles, capturing a sense of isolation that resonates. It’s a unique exploration of human fragility, not your typical drama, but that’s what makes it intriguing, I think.
