Avatar: Still a Groundbreaker in CGI, but Not in Story
I suppose you could argue that the story wasn’t what Director James Cameron was aiming for, it was the visuals. The spectacle of it all was the point, and it certainly shows.
Aberration
Tuyen is a Hikikomori – withdrawn from society she exists confined to her room by her own choice, deeply afraid of the outside world, which she loathes and yet longs for. The only human interactions she has are in her dreams and with her caretaker, her father, when he brings her meals. One day her cycle is broken by chance and Tuyen has to decide if she will face the outside world again. The Hikikomori are a growing, world wide phenomenon - but still largely unknown to society. The current pandemic will likely accelerate their numbers and this film aims to make them more known to the general public.
