Film is a medium capable of producing stuff that reaches
deep into the human mind. Below are some productions that have
touched Yours Truly.
From the listing, you can guess I'm a sucker for strange fiction
with surreal realities. For stories combining fantasy and libertarian
ideas. Preferably with some sort of cerebral attitude mixed into
it. And dealing with relations in a both sincere and thought-provoking
manner. But it can be great fun too - sometimes...//
