Boy. Some of the subtlest, shaky-cam, CGI I've ever seen. Utterly dreamlike and engrossing. Couldn't catch, by eye, the joins between stock footage, cinematography, and rotoscoping. Gloriously lo-fi soundtrack to match; hugely bold to drop it entirely for the last six minutes.
If Inception had taken proportionate risks, I'd be a Nolan fan for life: it would have bombed at the box office and lived on, a cult: Linux to Apple; cinema's Mozart to Hollywood's Salieri.
All credit to Rozema, Espevold, Bonelli, Mader, Portal, Noval, the innumerable host of VFX artists — and the even more numerous sponsors who took a punt with PostPanic. (I have no personal interest; I stumbled on this by way of a highly competent, but far less risky, rip-off of Blade Runner on YouTube — and took trouble to search the credits here.)
This may be the most compelling argument for crowd funding I've yet come across.
