What a strange film!


I saw this in my local library and looked at it and it looked interesting.

Just finished watching it and it was a very odd experience. I wasn't sure what I was watching sometimes and where it was going. But I somehow understood what was underneath it all - the plastic look of the park and the characters desires for a better life. And also that need to sort of make believe an alternate sort of reality within your own to get away from your troubles.

The animation scenes felt really random though. I thought the film was beautiful though it took me a while to get me into it.
