Why watch this film?

"Bliss: In Search of Happiness" is replaced with "Bliss". An original and exclusive Amazon Prime Video movie, 'Bliss' has huge potential. Directed by Mike Cahill (of the excellent 'The Universe in a Gaze'), we follow the story of a recently divorced man (Owen Wilson) who meets a woman (Salma Hayek) living on the streets who is convinced that the world around them is not real. She believes they are living in a horrible simulated world within a beautiful and peaceful real universe called Bliss. From there, we follow the conversations of these two, transitioning between existential dialogues and reflections on relationships. And although it seems like a middle ground between 'Before Sunrise' and 'Complications of Love', the filmmaker ends up betting on something a bit more banal, a romance with apparently complicated dialogues that end up leading to a regular film about passions and loves. If you like this last type of movie, you will definitely find it here.
