I thank prime for every so often allowing me to stumble a cross these films so often hidden in a sea of vanity projects.
Existence is a low budget film, but in its tiny setting and sparsely populated world, this does it more justice than disservice.
Some might say that the story is one without destination, that the character's lack much, if any explanation, but again this showing, rather than telling approach leaves so much more open.
The music score is minimal, but hauntingly beautiful, and sound is used again and again to display the unknown.
Very little is explained in this film; much of the story is shown though actions and interactions, and answers are lacking, forcing the viewer to judge for themselves, or just to question.
I would strongly recommend this film to anyone who wants a break from railroad narrative and just wants to sit back and watch something beautiful, if not stark.
