The fandom of the Sci-fi genre
Sci-fi films have a huge fan base worldwide. This genre is definitely the most popular genre among the masses and also for its creators. Bliss is a Sci- fi thriller which can be a very different visual experience for the viewers as it showcases ‘brain box simulations,’ which is described as, ‘an ugly, simulated world to generate appreciation for the real world.’ With such fascinating themes being explored in cinema, Bliss certainly has caught our attention making us want to watch the film at the very earliest.
Mind-bending love story
‘Bliss’ is a mind-bending love story that follows the recently divorced Greg whose life is falling apart and the enchanting Isabel, a woman who lives on the streets and is convinced that the polluted, broken world around them is not real. She believes they are living in an ugly, harsh world simulation inside of the beautiful, peaceful “real” world of bliss. Doubtful at first, Greg eventually discovers there may be some truth to Isabel’s wild conspiracy theory. What follows is the two getting too close to each other, maybe even too close for comfort resulting in an ending that we can’t wait to unfold in front of us.
The movie is an escape from reality
Bliss will take you to another world where it’s hard to find what’s real and what’s not. Watching the lines being blurred between a dream and a reality and experience what the characters go through is sure going to be fascinating. With the cinematic visuals and emotions captured beautifully, the viewer is in for a treat as they get to enjoy the best of both worlds. So sit back and relax, for you’re in bliss.
A movie that lives on the edge
It’s not an easy choice for Greg, the lead protagonist, for he must choose between the real and fantasy world. With him being disoriented between the two worlds, time is fast running out for Greg to make a choice and decide what’s real and where he truly belongs. If the trailer could be so intriguing, we can’t wait to see how the movie is going to be.
