When aspiring rapper Sol is discovered by a group of Gen-Z musicians after performing at a house party, he joins their tour through the heart of Texas and embarks on a once-in-a-lifetime road trip. Sol and his new collaborators bond over their shared pains and longings from the lives they left behind. Bold and brash, yet surprisingly sensitive and vulnerable, these young artists pour their souls into the music they create together. The novelty of Sol's newfound family fades as the demons Sol left behind come back to haunt him, including his guilt over abandoning his ailing friend. His sense of self is put to the ultimate test as he seeks refuge from the rootlessness and loss that has defined his existence. Set to a lo-fi, genre-bending hip-hop soundtrack, Katherine Propper's award-winning debut is suffused with a hazy and infectious energy and features virtuosic musical performances, from the tour van to the stage, that allow the ensemble's winning chemistry to shine.

Overall impression is extremely positive, marked by a succession of great performances and by an incidental soundtrack that is created on the fly. [Full review in Spanish]

For all of its cliched youthful exuberance, the film finds its footing in the third act when it offers a bittersweet look into the tradeoffs of fame and how their conflicts with personal obligations can derail even the most promising artists.

Loud and Clear Reviews

While stylistically similar to the likes of Andrea Arnold’s American Honey, it paves its own contemporary path as a commentary on Gen Z’s artistic motivations and their relationship with technology

Rated: 3/5

Still, the enthusiastic spirit of Lost Soulz is appealing enough to make what feels like two different types of movies sutured together dramatically satisfying.

Lost Soulz is a captivating journey that masterfully intertwines storytelling and music. The film's soundtrack is a standout, featuring an extraordinary blend of melodies that perfectly capture the essence of each scene. The main music group in the movie delivers performances with such natural feel and authenticity that they effortlessly draw you into their world. Their music not only complements the narrative but elevates it, adding depth and emotion to the storyline. Kudos to the producers for bringing such a refreshing and immersive musical experience to the screen. A must-watch for music lovers and movie enthusiasts alike!

A phenomenal vérité style coming-of-age film that encapsulates the current hip-hop culture without being judgmental or glorifying. Young people from broken families and situations on the search for home and transcendence. This film relates well to the lost feeling so many people in my generation feel today as aimlessly ambitious kids trying to find meaning. Artists finding beauty in the natural world while expressing the loneliness and alienation they feel in a world so removed from truthfulness, filtered by phones and false realities. An escape only gets you so far before life has a way of catching up with you.

The road trip in the film is beautifully shot, mixing expansive landscapes with intimate moments. This contrast highlights both the vast external world and the characters' deep internal struggles. The handheld camera work and natural lighting immerse the audience in the characters' experiences, making their emotions and struggles feel real. The soundtrack, featuring original compositions and contemporary tracks, enhances the film's mood and supports the characters' emotional journeys. The musicians' performances are authentic, adding realism. The music not only sets the tone but also expresses the characters' inner thoughts and feelings. "Lost Soulz" is a touching, beautiful, and emotional film. It is highly recommended.
