Hikikomori (2021)
Camille, cloistered at home for more than a year, escapes into video games, dance, manga and drawing. Among her drawings, we discover MYO, her double, stronger and more extroverted than her. A character that she created and that she "integrates" to face the outside world. One morning, under pressure from her mother, Camille decides to end her lack of understanding of society and the world around her and walks out of her apartment with the ambition to end her life. Fortunately, thanks to the different people she will meet along the way, far from her bitterness, she will finally find the sweet taste of life.

To me, this movie is perfection.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
