delicatessen

i love post-apocalyptic settings, where a director invents a whole world that may or may never exist. not many directors are as good at creating believable fantasy than jean-pierre jeunet.
this haunting house of grotesque people driven mad by a destitute future is a whole world within four walls, filled with every possible high and low of human life. a bit like lord of the flies, but set in an apartment block in south-east london.

7/10
