Space Oddity

About This Movie

Space Oddity (2021) takes you on an unusual journey through the cosmos, told from the perspective of Min-chul, a crow with a quest for an elusive beak jewel. The film has this quirky charm, blending whimsy with some darker themes, especially when the shocking truth about the jewel is revealed. The atmosphere is both ethereal and grounded, with practical effects that give it a unique texture, making the alien landscapes feel tangible. The pacing is a bit off-kilter at times, but it adds to the dreamlike quality of Min-chul's exploration. It’s not your conventional space adventure; rather, it’s a very personal story wrapped in a cosmic setting that lingers in your mind after watching.

Space Oddity has seen limited releases, making its formats somewhat rare for collectors. The film's distinctive hand-drawn animation combined with practical effects has caught the interest of niche audiences, but it remains obscure enough that many haven’t caught wind of it yet. As more collectors delve into offbeat cinema, this title may gain traction, especially among those who appreciate unconventional storytelling and artistic visuals.
