These twenty minutes fly by like a dream. We are mesmerized by the fractured narration jostling through animated worlds permeated by live-action and archival footage, interspersed quotes from religion and art history, or abstract fragments. We observe a cat celebrating her sadistic game with a captured mouse, encounter the protagonist’s imaginary daughter, and witness other people suddenly losing their heads—literally.
