“I was blown away by this movie. I watched it at the Love and Hope International Film Festival in Barcelona yesterday. I didnu0026#39;t know what to expect. As the movie was progressing I noticed that my attention never went away. The topic by itself is already fascinating. Anything about the human mind, the way it works and interprets the world is a passion for me. And this movie dealt with the topic in a masterful way, connecting as well with the topic of Psychedelics and their potential therapeutic uses. But behind all of that there is an incredible message in the movie. It is a message about perspective, relativity and interpretation, about the representations we build in our minds, our world models that help us navigate u0026quot;realityu0026quot; by combining our beliefs and our perception. When we become conscious about those processes we realize that our u0026quot;realityu0026quot; is way more malleable than we may think. And also, that our problems are as well! A problem becomes a problem specially because we believe it to be one! It is possible to alter our world models to make us get out of deep mental crevices. This movie helps us understand that our current perspective on life is just one of infinite possible ones. Let me tell you something. The recent oscar winner, everything everywhere all at once, for me and for my brother was just too much. And for many people we know as well. They overdid it. Many people didnu0026#39;t reach the end of that movie. We almost didnu0026#39;t.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor me, this movie, A trip elsewhere, is a thousand times better than that oscar winner movie. This movie, unlike Everything Everywhere All at Once, reaches a perfect balance between narrative, message, comedy and effects. It never tires you, it never lets you go. And it delivers a strong useful message that leaves you reflecting after the experience, about your mind, your own perspective on things, the way you deal with your problems and issues, and the infinite possibilities that await us, opportunities to explore many other perspectives on our life and the life of those around us.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe acting was absolutely superb by the entire cast. The effects were fantastic. This movie demonstrates that you donu0026#39;t need hundreds of millions of dollars to create something like Everything Everywhere All At Once, but much better!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI really hope that this movie will reach very far and hopefully be nominated for an Oscar. Congratulations Dale and team!”
