    Using the same rotoscoping technique as Linklater's other works, this adaptation of Philip K. Dick's novel creates a suffocating atmosphere of paranoia. The visual style, where the characters appear to be constantly shifting and dissolving, mirrors the effects of the fictional drug Substance D. It is a bleak, technically impressive exploration of identity loss and state surveillance that feels uncomfortably grounded in reality.
