Will (Winston Duke) spends his days in a remote outpost watching the live Point of View (POV) on TV's of people going about their lives, until one subject perishes, leaving a vacancy for a new life on earth. Soon, several candidates -- unborn souls -- arrive at Will's to undergo tests determining their fitness, facing oblivion when they are deemed unsuitable. But Will soon faces his own existential challenge in the form of free-spirited Emma (Zazie Beetz), a candidate who is not like the others, forcing him to turn within and reckon with his own tumultuous past. Fueled by unexpected power, he discovers a bold new path forward in his own life. Making his feature-film debut after a series of highly acclaimed and award-winning short films and music videos, Japanese Brazilian director Edson Oda delivers a heartfelt and meditative vision of human souls in limbo, aching to be born against unimaginable odds, yet hindered by forces beyond their will.

A lofty theme that lacked the visual robustness and scale to deliver the message. Although the acting (ESPECIALLY the ending scene), design, and style were all great, I don't feel enough was done to address specifics around the plotline and the stories to really leave me feeling fulfilled as a viewer. I wanted to see more of the 'how, why, where' and less of the vague, abstract, quiet contemplation.

Cried for like 30 mins dam hits hard... beautiful story that really makes you think about life and beauty of living and having a soul!!!!

Great film, beautifully acted. The two hours+ in this film went by so fast. It makes you think on so many levels....and that final scene OMG ❤❤❤
