As other reviewers stated, this was more done in a music video style than a short film style (but without actually becoming a music video). It seemed to show the chaotic nature of the main character of the film, and it did so quite well. But if you are expecting a clear story or distinct emotions, without having seen the parent drama, you are gonna feel like you're missing quite a number of pieces (I say this as someone who has not yet gotten around to the parent story - and will thus likely edit this review after doing so).

In some ways, I'm remined of a club scene in the BL short film Verona (2010). But could not vibe in the same way as I did to Verona. The music was effectively the sound equivalent to strobe lights. Combined with the essentially strobe-style scene portrayals and switching - I felt a very unpleasant level of anxiety. It's probably purposeful, to show Noah's chaos, but it leant to a personally unpleasant experience.
