Meditative experience
chenp-5470828 January 2024
Watched this at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.

This documentary is definitely unique as it isn't about the studies of butterflies and moths, rather an meditative and experimental-like approach to the subject with gorgeous colorful camerawork of the landscapes and amazing visual and sound designs throughout. The filmmakers have provided an interest observation about butterflies and moths using sound design, imagery and small narration to describe the ecology system and what makes the world such a beautiful environment.

As mentioned, the sound designs are incredible and it's best to view the movie with headphones or surround system environment as the sound really adds the experience of listening and viewing this documentary. The sounds of the moths and butterflies together creates the sound of rainfall and it was an very interesting ASMR vibe experience.

The subject was interesting and while the pacing does drag quite a bit at certain moments and I do wish there were a little more interviews and discussions. As a whole, the experience felt meditative and relaxing.
