You must see Limbophobia, directed by Wen-Yee Hsieh, to understand the importance of darkness and light in virtual reality. A futuristic tale of striking minimalism.
When the excellence of animated cinema is invited into virtual reality, it offers unexpected creations such as Limbophobia by Wen-Yee Hsieh. The Taiwanese filmmaker uses new formats with the same virtuosity as traditional creative media, offering a minimalist, high-quality adventure in which darkness and light play a central role. In the tradition of the great science-fiction essays, Limbophobia redraws the realism of situations and the very idea of gravity in a grand spectacle that feeds our imaginations.
