YOUR RATING

Every year, Goa, one of the biggest party and holiday hosts to the world, welcomes infinite number of tourists. Most of them go back once the season gets over. Few choose to stay back, digging deeper into the traces of a hippie hangover, or trying to search oneself through the incandescent, colorful, trippy shores of Goa. And a few yet, get in so deep at the wrong end of paradise, that they are lost forever, in the same place, but in a whole different world altogether. The film takes one such real-life character - Roy - through a plethora of happenings, phenomena, legends, myths, sights, sounds, experiences and thrilling stories of the fabled Goan paradise. What happens to the protagonist through the bitter-sweet, darkly funny, crazy, trippy journey and what comes along at the end of it, weaves the half-fictitious/half-real story of our film - CandyFlip.

Bollywood needs to change their perspective

I don't know if this movie deserves a good or a bad rating. Bollywood has always portrayed goa as a hippie destination for drugs, raves & sex. Thus giving out a negative image about goa. It shows their perspective of goa as a holiday destination for relaxing, doing drugs, going to beaches, freedom to drink alcohol etc. The movie is about a man's acid trip gone horribly wrong which leads him a path of downward spiral.

The other side of Goa.

Loved the movie, the way its shot is a refreshing. Amazing shots and perspectives refreshingly different form what Indian cinema has been seeing for years.

The psychedelic culture of Goa is captured in a way it was never done before, some scenes are beyond imagination. Killer direction by Shanawaz and loved the cinematography. Cheers to the Team!

A crazy roller coaster ride

Pure Gem in terms of experimental indie cinema culture. Amazing cinematography, sound, and tense narrative

"Magical Experience"

This is one of those rare flims that only comes along once in a blue moon; it will immediately have you reevaluating some of your Psychedelic experience. Clearly Seen that Director Shanawaz Nellikulin has a great vision of Goa psychedelic culture. And the use of cinematographic elements and visual effects to convey both ecstasy and horror is suberb.
