Praxis (2008)
An allegorical fantasy
This film is definitely not for everyone...but if you are willing to invest a little thought and effort, you will get a big payoff here. It's a morality play centering on cause and effect. It incorporates real life situations, cosmic theory, scientific fact and a bit of metaphysical belief (seemingly held by the writer director). Although this has what might be to some seen as homoerotic imagery, this is definitely NOT a "gay film"...especially when you find out what it all meant at the end. The acting is "experimental" and varies from character to character, but overall it is a nice work of non-linear storytelling with some very thought-provoking imagery...whether you subscribe to it or not. I think the negative reviewers were expecting something a bit more salacious or mind-numbing...which this is definitely not.
