Side Roads

About This Movie

Side Roads, or Itineraire Bis, has this unique way of weaving together seemingly disjointed lives. You’ve got this young guy dreaming about a pizza truck—like, who doesn't love that vibe? And then there are these two brothers, one in a wheelchair, hanging around this big, almost eerie house. The pacing feels a bit off-kilter at times, which oddly adds to the charm. It’s not your standard narrative; it’s more of a slice of life, exploring themes of longing and connection in a way that feels very raw. The practical effects, though not extravagant, serve the story without overshadowing the performances, which are subtle yet impactful. It’s a curious film that lingers in your mind.
