Electroshock

The short film constructs its premise on a clever juxtaposition of the cosmic and the mundane. It explores how the ultimate power in the hands of a teenager is reduced to a tool for navigating the most human and humble of anxieties, working with the visual poetry of slowed time as a canvas for daydreams and insecurities.

What lingers after viewing is an inventive, intimate take on coming of age, where superpowers are just an exaggeration of universal growing pains. It’s a charming reminder of when the world felt both infinitely vast and laughably small. — MovieFinder Editorial
