Cinematic adaption of a graphic novel. It is based on the 1001 Arabian Nights but reduced down to 100.
I'm not going to say much about the film because five minutes into it I realized that I was not the audience for it. Set in an alternate universe and possessing a DIY esthetic, the film deliberately seems to be leaning to a camp sensibility. I'm not sure why, the underlying story is good, it just feel jumbled in the telling. It feels like Bruno Dumont's EMPIRE.
I know that isn't really helpful but it's all I got.
