Alessandra De Rossi plays a young woman who leads a lonely, mundane existence in the real world but who has the perfect life in her lucid dreams which she can somehow control, meets a mysterious stranger, played by JM De Guzman, who challenges her to turn her dream life into something a bit more adventurous. Then her dreams become more real than her reality and the line between the two starts to blur.
Lucid is the film which I got relate the most. It is a deep character study with an interesting subject matter. The film works on bringing something to talk to with good discussion after watching. Kudos to the film for being brave enough on bringing this intrguing story that’s not usually explored. The film grabs you and takes you on another level of perception to reflect on our journey in life. Lucid’s poignant depiction on loneliness and depression is one of the engaging element and reason to watch this film. The film is a bittersweet journey yet will make you realize that what matters is our perspective on how we look at things. Bob Jbeili's performance is noteworthy and of course Alessandra De Rossi’s subtle and effective performance is worth watching.
My Verdict: 3.5/5
