9/10
Wes Anderson, but Winnipeg.
9 April 2025
What happens when someone loves Wes Anderson but also lives in Winnipeg, Canada, and decides to make some absurdist tale about culture, Persian identity, and adventures? That's what basically Universal Language.

An absolute absurd blast of a flick that offers a odd examination of the Canadian landscapes and Persian style throughout. Matthew Rankin provides a hilarious, humane and warm absurd tale with some gorgeous camerawork, funny performances, dialogue and banter throughout. Interplaced with several strange storylines and characters, it's quite an joy to observe seeing something quite strange and weird, yet still remaining unique.
