About
If you enjoy music-driven stories that blur reality and performance and lean into weird, self-aware twists, this could click; Not for you if you want a clear, traditional documentary-style narrative like Hearts Beat Loud.
Pros: playful reality-bending premise; sharp identity questions; offbeat, bizarre energy | Cons: intentionally confusing at times; uneven tone shifts; not very straightforward
