Based on a novella by Philip K. Dick (completed in 1973, 1st ed. 1977).
In the near future, a powerful drug is frying people's brains. An undercover agent infiltrates a house of addicts.
The tone shifts between comedy, existential drama and conspiration/police story. All that in rotoscopy animation, and with fine performances. The result is thoroughly entertaining, although my impression was that the mental problems of the protagonist should be better characterized. There were some plot points that were difficult to understand, and explaining them simply as an effect of the character's perception disorder feels to me like bad writing.
