Undone

After a serious car crash, Alma finds she can communicate with her dead father. Her new ability helps her travel through her own and her family’s timelines to explore the relationships and events she finds. Along the way, she uncovers secrets and finds a spiritual side to herself. The entire series is filmed in rotoscope (live action but looks animated) which gives a surreal effect to the story and helps to blur reality with the spiritual and ethereal world of her memories and family’s history. If Alma can see alternative events, then maybe she can influence them and correct previous mistakes … and who wouldn’t want to do that? The series is superbly acted and scripted in a down to earth way but asks profound questions regarding one’s relationships with oneself and one’s family. Moving, funny and thoughtful. 8/10
