Tideland is a 2005 film directed by Terry Gilliam. The story follows a young girl named Jeliza-Rose who is left to fend for herself in a desolate Texas farmhouse after her parents die from drug overdoses.
As Jeliza-Rose navigates her new reality, she creates a fantasy world to escape from the harshness of her surroundings. She befriends a mentally unstable man named Dickens and his sister Dell, who live in a nearby abandoned house.
Throughout the film, Jeliza-Rose's imagination blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, leading to a surreal and disturbing journey. Tideland explores themes of loneliness, trauma, and resilience as Jeliza-Rose tries to make sense of her chaotic world.
The film received mixed reviews upon its release, with critics praising Gilliam's visual style but criticizing the dark and unsettling subject matter. Tideland is a challenging and thought-provoking film that delves into the complexities of childhood and the power of imagination.
