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.

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 ❤❤❤

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!!!!
