MovieMaker Magazine - "‘Lostless,’ directed by Dustin James Leighton and starring Jade Soto and Mitch Morrison, is an introspective and contemplative film that explores the human psyche and the duality of the mind. Echoing the spirit of Tarkovsky's "Solaris" and Lynch's "Mulholland Drive," Leighton expertly crafts a narrative that oscillates between the real and the imaginary, showcasing his directorial prowess in this silent film.
Leighton's experience as a Director of Photography, since attending the ASC Masterclass in 2019, is evident in the film's striking visual elements. "Lostless" tells a powerful story without words, with captivating performances by Soto and Morrison, and expertly crafted sound design by Abbot Miller. A unique voice in contemporary cinema, the film serves as a testament to Leighton's boundless creativity and artistic vision, inviting viewers on a journey of introspection and self-discovery.”
