I Lost My Body definitely gets points for creativity and stylistic choice, but it's also a slow-moving film with an unclear destination. The alternation between Nauvel and the hand was certainly an interesting choice, and it is fun to see the hand travel around Paris. We spend the entire film going through flashbacks to understand some very simple events. The fact that there's literally no substance to their romance, just him talking to her a couple times and falling in love and following her, precluded much investment in the plot line. The ending is clearly hearkening back to Nauvel's earlier line about cheating fate, but rings hollow - he wanted to do something and unpredictable to cheat fate just for the sake of it, with no real goal in mind? It's not a bad story, and the reveal of what happened to the hand and his parents was well set up by the story, but it drags so much getting there that the payoff feels insufficient. It is bold and artistic, but there really wasn't anything to latch onto in this film.
