Metropia Movie Trailer

The new film by film maker Tarik Saleh, has such an individual look, i had to post it. The film premiered recently at Fantastic Fest, and reviews have been encouraging. The budget surprisingly for the Swedish film only cost $4.5 million. Although there is a tiny element of the film that reminds of the adverts for Capri Sun... buts thats being churlish.

Voiced by Vincent Gallo, Roger, a working stiff with no social life who rides his bike in defiance of a massive underground transit system in Europe. It’s 2024 and he's haunted by a voice in his head that seems to be related to a bigger conspiracy. Its very '1984' and 'Brazil', so count me.
