The Eastern Block nations were making some weird ass films under the rule of the Soviets. I don't mean that in a bad way, more that there are some truly bizarre film that came out during the Cold War, especially in the 60's, 70's and 80's. I mean no one in Hollywood would turn out a musical folk tale about the devil ending up in a romance after getting pitched from heaven. The music is fully of fuzzy guitars and music thts similar to Jesus Christ Superstar except not up to Andrew Lloyd Webber.
God bless Deaf Crocodile for bringing this film to the masses. This is a one of a kind viewing experience that is going to delight anyone who wants off Hollywood films. This is going to confuse others. And it will annoy the hell out of anyone who wants typical Hollywood product.
I do not know if this qualifies as a good film. I don't know if I like it as a film. I don't know if that matters. I do know that I loved the experience of watching. I loved the weird twists ans turns and not feeling like I knew where this was going. This is an experience and an eye opening film about the world and cinema.
If you want something that isn't like anything you've seen before- give this film a shot.
