Balloonerism (2025) dir, Sam Mason ★★★½

Review by Fernando Figueroa

in


A vivid animation depicts a surreal escape by a group of kids who fight, or rather confront, the Time Turtle, inspired by a magical organ. The boys' journey is typical of Samuel Mason's style, based on Pittsburgh's Blue Slide Park. The teenagers embody some songs from Mac Miller's posthumous album, which was released after he died in 2019 at the hands of Fentanyl. There is no dialogue, but there is music with convoluted adventures.
