CGiii Comment

Read what you will into it...it's not [overtly] gay.

What it is...is a damn fine film...with exceptional thought and cinematography.

The(ir) Blurb...

A man moves amidst the noisy crowds at an amusement park, accompanied only by a large pink stuffed toy. Encircled by the sounds and incessant movements of the rides, this strange duo anchors long sequence shots that navigate the mechanical rhythms and decor of the park.

Un homme seul et son gros ours en peluche rose forment un étrange duo parmi la foule d’un parc d’amusement. Isolés par les bruits et le mouvement incessant des manèges qui les entourent, ils sont le point d'ancrage de longs plans séquences rythmés par ce décor mécanique.
