Accidental and charming boredom and sadness

At the beginning, there was a jumble of graffiti on the wall of the Zack room,

"IT's Not THE FALL
THAT Kills You
IT’s THE SUDDEN
STOP"

"LIFE IS A LIMBO DANCE,
BUT
IT’S A QUESTION OF WHERE YOU GET DOWN
NOT
HOW LOW YOU CAN GET"

Zack , Jack, two similar dreamers, unfortunately, were designed to enter the prison by accident, and then put into the same cell. The appearance of Bob, the appearance of a child with social personality, along with Zack and Jack, escaped from the prison. The black-and-white lens that slowly zooms in and zooms out is kind, beautiful and sad to the two dreamers. The whole movie is full of casual and charming dialogue and colors.

    Black and white, cool humour, great photography in the opening sequence! The scene of dinner at the cabin in the woods in 90 minutes appeared, and I finally realized that the more I watched it, the more familiar it was. It was a movie I watched several years ago. Did I fall asleep while watching it, dizzy?

    Two bonkers and one life treasure say that the absurd is not absurd enough, that the weird is not weird enough, that the psychedelic is not enough, that the emptiness is not enough, so many people like this

    Roberto: Buzz - off. Good evening, buzz off to everybody. Oh, thank you. Buzz off to you too. Oh, it's a pleasure. Thank you.
