Skąd się biorą sny

It’s impossible to avoid comparing Dreambuilders with Pixar's Inside Out, which also took the audience into the depths of the human head, but this Danish film lacked a strong and complex plot. Dreambuilders does have an appealing premise that actually lured me to the cinema, and it is a pity that the makers didn’t let their imagination run a little more free and rather focused (again and again) on relationship-family issues and (a little bit obvious) lecturing the viewer. I have to say that the character of Jenny really got on my nerves, and therefore I completely sympathized with Mina's actions, but as it happens, even the good characters have their downsides. It’s a shame that the film didn't offer any downright funny, dramatic or action scenes that would have stuck in my mind more, perhaps only the "sweater dejà vu" had a bit of a sharper comic edge. As a result, I enjoyed mainly the dream world "behind the wall", whose limitless possibilities remained at times punishingly untapped. (29.07.2020)
