OXYGEN

I asked The Child: "Do you want to watch a couple of sci-fi films?" I was surprised that The Child was all in.

We watched a short film, Akai, directed by Michael Sparks, to kick things off.

For our feature, we watched Oxygen, directed by Alexandre Ada. While it dabbled in some classic sci-fi scenarios and tropes, the way that it presented and developed them was intriguing and well-done and fresh. I felt my blood pressure rising along with the character portrayed by Mélanie Laurent, who did an absolutely wonderful job of acting.
