This portrait of a young man on the brink of fatherhood moves quickly from familiar drama into dark fairytale. Paul, a young man planning to marry his pregnant girlfriend, finds his values challenged and his life upended by the arrival of his sinister, sexually predatory, future motherin-law. In a surreal story that nods in the direction of Jan Svankmajer, the Brothers Quay and even Kenneth Anger, Paul’s attempts to face the traumas of his childhood and grapple with manhood will take him on a dangerous journey peopled with exotic beauties, criminals and grotesques.
