In a ruined city, Rachel, a scavenger, finds a small creature named "Borne" tangled in the fur of Mord, a gigantic bear made by a biotech firm. She knows her lover, Wick, is keeping secrets about working there, so she searches his stuff and finds a journal titled "Mord." What is he hiding?

Scostante

Mi è piaciucchiato: il ritmo è così così, ci sono due o tre momenti mind-blowing e soprattutto l'intero immaginario è fantastico, come nella trilogia di Annientamento… ma ci sono dei difetti, almeno secondo me: ritmo, alcuni passaggi sbrigativi e decisamente poco sviluppo per un personaggio che pare essenziale e poi, invece, viene dimenticato in maniera sbrigativa. Meh.

Amazing as usual

Just like Annihilation, it's beautiful and weird.

This one focuses more on characters however, rather than just environment. It's weird and even more confusing, but I love it.

I love Borne so much. What a little guy. Mischievous fellow.
