With its atmospheric cinematography and a haunting soundtrack, “Cuckoo” aims to carve its own niche in the realm of psychological cinema, promising an unforgettable cinematic experience that lingers in the minds of viewers long after the credits roll. As SXSW 2024 marks the platform for its debut, “Cuckoo” is poised to be a captivating and intellectually stimulating addition to the festival, offering a fresh perspective on the intricacies of human consciousness and the power of film as a medium for profound exploration.
