Waking Life - A ride in a technicolour boat that moves a bit too much

I am in the first quarter of Waking Life, film made by Richard Linklater. So far it appears to be a young man's journey through different schools of thougt about the phylosophy of self and ego.
It's almost as if he is intererviewing the people he interacts with, all of them giving him a different imput.

What strikes the first cord howerver, is the aesthetic of the film, which is completley rotoscoped from footage to animation.


Although visually stunning, I'm struggling to watch certain shots of the film, as almost every element of the backgoround moves; it gives me motion sickness.

Never the less, I will soldier on and update this post when I finish the film.
*Never updates again*
