There are some people who enjoy science-fiction in part because of the technical aspects - how a man or woman might imagine future technology to look and function. I'm more interested in the philosophical aspects, seeing instead how we as people change as a result of technological advances. Another Earth was billed as a science-fiction film, but to a large degree it isn't - it's more about remorse and penance and all that icky human stuff. Still, while this film has some visual touches I don't much care for (sorry filmmakers, zooms during dramatic moments are really hard to pull off due to overuse), it's audacious - it's ballsy enough to introduce the titular conceit and then back away from it when necessary.
