Description
A corrective to so much political satire that is more clever than amusing, this is one of the year’s loopiest, funniest films.
We’re used to describing modern politics as a farce, though it's never a particularly entertaining one. Not so this gleefully absurd collaboration between veteran Canadian experimentalist Guy Maddin and fraternal directing duo Evan and Galen Johnson, which is genuinely, openly, raucously hilarious as it skewers the well-meaning ineffectiveness and gestural rhetoric of the G7 forum — imagined here as an international confederacy of dunces, headed by a stiff-backed German chancellor wickedly played by Cate Blanchett. As she and six other world leaders gather in a custom-built gazebo to discuss sundials, the Olympic Games and an unspecified “global crisis” that none of them knows how to solve, a heavy fog sets in, zombie-like beings rise from the earth, and the fun really begins.
