Alex Prager's feature directorial debut "DreamQuil" stars Elizabeth Banks as a dissatisfied woman in a near-future dystopia who enrolls in a controversial wellness program, exploring themes of artificial companionship and objectification through surreal visuals inspired by retro-futuristic aesthetics. While the film demonstrates Prager's exceptional visual composition and color work, critics note its narrative is underdeveloped and fails to meaningfully engage with its philosophical questions about technology and human connection.
