In terms of style, story, sets and filmatography... this is a lusciously absurd and beautiful movie that could easily be confused for a Gilliam movie. Anyone who loved the absurdist futurism of 'Brazil' or 'Zero-Theorem' will love this short and identify with the story-telling style.
Will someone please PLEASE pick this up for a feature length project? As it stands it's an easy sell... or, with Sir Gilliam on board (and I'm sure he certainly would be) a full length version of this this would literally sell itself.
Basically, this is a full and satisfying Gilliamesque movie made in 20-minute short form ... The characters are utterly amazing, the writing is superb and the plot is, at once, inspiring, tragic, funny, beautiful and incredibly sweet.
Forget your average student short - here, the production values are every bit a masterpiece... making this film a true jewel among shorts. Certainly, all Gilliam fans should watch this.
