Stray

About This Movie

So, 'Stray' is a curious little film. It plays out in this parallel universe where the tables have turned on sexual biases, and it’s this fascinating premise that pulls you in. Eric, a struggling straight guy, checking into a conversion camp is both absurd and oddly poignant. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, oscillating between humor and moments of real introspection. The performances, particularly from the lead, are raw and authentic, really selling the discomfort and the journey toward self-acceptance. There's a playful yet serious tone that runs through it all and you can’t help but appreciate how it tackles such a heavy theme with a touch of wit. The practical effects are minimal, but they serve the narrative well, enhancing the oddity of the setting. A distinctive film, for sure.
