This is a Spanish-speaking short film that contains English subtitles. The short film is produced in the United States.
The problem isn’t that it’s bad. It's good. But it fails to stand out from a crowd of similar films.
“Synchronic” is special, but it doesn’t succeed in achieving all the objectives it aims for. The film is a science fiction oeuvre which tries to be cerebral at some points, although the original idea is interesting, it only accomplishes to talk about some serious matters superficially.
