Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
AN OVERSIMPLIFICATION OF HER BEAUTY
Synopsis
A quixotic artist hypothesizes about why he feels bad when a mystery girl stands him up. The event prompts him to ask: what’s the content of a momentary feeling? Is it the sum of your experiences? And, perhaps more importantly, are your experiences the sum of you?

Our take
A kaleidoscope of forms, ranging from documentary to animation, mix together to shape this intimate confession on romance, youth, and the one that got away. Infused with spirited flourishes of music, color, and direct camera addresses, Terence Nance’s debut is alive in ways that few movies are.
