Experimental works, gloomy content, pure tones. Determined by the content of its totalitarian control, the form is minimalism, and the large amount of pure white is impressive. Because of the subtitles, part of the plot seems to be understandable, but it does not affect the director's emotions.
The film is still not outdated after many years, and it has influenced many sci-fi works since then, especially cyberpunk. Sci-fi fans can't miss it.
Although it was produced at a small cost, it was extremely sophisticated in details, especially in the second half, chasing cars, apes, etc. Such scenes were rare in the works of that era. 4 and a half stars
