"Everything Beautiful is Far Away"

 A boy, a girl, and a robot head enter the desert. Sounds like the opening line of a joke. It's actually the plot to an off-beat, slow-moving indie film that I recently saw. It takes place in the near future, and the plot is pretty much the way I described it. The unusual trio is in search for a mythical lake, while trying to survive their harsh environment. I don't recall ever seeing a movie quite like it. It hooked me right of way and I couldn't stop watching it. It's a quiet, pretty movie that I think I need to watch again. I found it quite by chance by doing a search on Hoopla for sci-fi movies. 

3.5 out of 5 stars
