Loneliness among the people hanging in the screens
No, it's not a horror movie. It's much more than that. This is a story about the horrors that have been happening for at least the last decade in our world. The hero of the story is not without reason an autistic boy, for whom it is so important to find friends. Real friends... But it sometimes becomes easier for parents, that is, adults, to deceive and make it so that they do not cause themselves unnecessary "inconveniences". It is better to let the son use the phone and look for friends there. It's calmer this way.
The film is filled with allegories and metaphors every minute, surprisingly turning a horror story into a message to all viewers. Who is on the other side of the screen under the mysterious name of Larry? Everyone will surely be able to easily understand that this is a prototype of our being, woven according to the formula "loneliness among the crowd"... We are not afraid of him, because we have long been accustomed to his constant presence. For the boy, this state of affairs is terrifying. But does he have a choice? And can he fight back against the yawning funnel of the nightmare? The plot develops very unpredictably and puts adults in front of a choice every time. Are they ready to sacrifice their comfortable lifestyle for the sake of the interests of children? And in general, is it possible to answer the question with confidence today, what is real parental love? I hope that many will agree that this is not only a warm house with upholstered furniture and toys, as well as a new smartphone. Love can't be material, after all.
After watching this film, you can perceive the plot in different ways, up to the recognition that all these incredible scenes are just a kind of perception by a boy with special features of development of a very real story from the life of the family. Then the ending takes on a completely different meaning...
I recommend it to fans of mystical stories with meaning. To someone, perhaps this tape will remind you of the movie "Others" with Nicole Kidman by its nature. Not so much the plot, but the atmosphere.
