Realism and fantasy walk hand in hand in the dry plains of Jenna Cato Bass’ South Africa, where four racially diverse friends set out on a fun-trip, and capture their reality on a phone-camera. Yet, it’s not quite reality when they mysteriously swap bodies with each other, and begin to see the world differently. From its cinematic choices to its narrative, there’s one thing this award-winning, exploratory film tells us: sometimes, it takes fantasy to experience reality.
