This movie is a student film shot in B&W and book-ended with color animated sequences. Given what happens in those sequences, I suspect the decision to animate them was due to budgetary constraints.
We see the progression of a naive young man duped into joining a military force and watch his personality progress alongside his misadventures in outer space and on other planets.
The decision to turn a male character into a female one was interesting to me, and I figured why not, since the character's sex wasn't integral to the plot. (Not Bill, someone else.)
Due to its budgetary constraints, I am reluctant to hold the movie to the same standards of movies put out by major studios, making my rating decision a little difficult to decide on. I did not care for the stylistic decisions of the animated parts. Having said that, I feel like this might've been more interesting -- whether or not it were possible -- to do a crowdsourced version of this in the style of Star Wars Uncut.
