Space

About This Movie

So, 'Space' is intriguing for a few reasons, mainly how it captures that eerie isolation we all felt in 2020. The UFO encounter serves as a backdrop to explore deeper themes of connection and loneliness, all while being shot in quarantine. The director, who remains unnamed, managed to pull off a large-scale production remotely, which is pretty wild when you think about it. With 67 actors spread across 76 locations, mostly in Kyiv and Odesa, it creates this sense of vastness juxtaposed with the confinement of the situation. The practical effects lean into a low-fi aesthetic that feels refreshing. Performances vary, but there’s a rawness that really suits the overall vibe. Definitely a distinctive piece, even if it might not be for everyone.
