"Everything Everywhere All at Once" is a science fiction movie, written and directed by Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, collectively known as Daniels. The independent film was released in May 2022 and has become a huge box office hit globally.

The movie introduces us to the story of Evelyn Wang, a Chinese immigrant in the United States who has a fractured relationship with her teenage daughter Evelyn. Through a strange set of circumstances, the protagonist is forced to explore the multiverse and is drawn into an adventure in which only she can save the world. Each universe features a new version of Evelyn and adopts a different aesthetic and narrative.
Directors Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert have sought to create universes that have a universal cinematic language for the audience. To achieve this familiarity, the production creates sets that reference the films of our collective memory such as The Matrix, Die Hard and Kill Bill.
 
"Everything Everywhere All at Once" has also been inspired by the aesthetic of Wong Kar-Wai's brilliant film In The Mood For Love. In one of the parallel universes where the protagonist finds himself, the scenes adopt a dark and mysterious cinematographic language and are stylized with the same romantic energy as the iconic corridor scene.

With beautiful and chaotic photography, the film has taken on Western influences, but has also preserved and reinterpreted traditional Eastern conceptions. The directors pay homage to the long history of Asians in the United States through a unique and unrepeatable story.

Everything Everywhere All at Once asks us to find beauty in our small and complex lives. In every universe there is always something to love. No matter how insignificant, everything matters.
