DESCRIPTION:[col_one_third ] \n \n[/col_one_third] \n[col_two_thirds ] \nA Pigeon Sat on a Branch\nReflecting on Existence\nScreening:\nTuesday\, October 20\, 9:00 pm\nUptown Theatre\, Screen 1 \nWritten and Directed by Roy Andersson \nSweden/Germany/Norway/France / 2014 / Comedy/Drama / Rated PG for brief sexuality and some disturbing images / Swedish with English subtitles / 100 min. \nMaster Swedish director Roy Andersson takes up the theme of “being a human being” with this meticulously crafted\, dreamlike black comedy. Featuring Sam and Jonathan\, a pair of hapless novelty salesmen\, we are taken on a kaleidoscopic tour of the human condition which unfolds in absurdist episodes: a sing-along at a 1940s beer hall\, a randy flamenco teacher\, a thirsty King Charles XII of Sweden en route to battle\, and a diabolical metaphor for the horrors inflicted by European colonialism. Ultimately\, it is a journey that unveils the beauty of single moments\, the pettiness of others\, life’s grandeur\, and the humour and tragedy hidden within us all. \nWatch the trailer here! \n[/col_two_thirds] \n[col_one]
