Hilarious melancholic Movie
6 September 2023
What makes this movie unique is its great humour.

It begins with the death knocking at a young man's door, explaining the man he has 3 minutes left to live. The young man shuts the door calling the death a freak. After the death walks through the door he realizes there is something more to it.

The man than decides to go visit his mum, which he hasnt seen for some time, with his (ex)girlfriend.

The movie portrays a deep sadness but always combined with great great humor. I had a few loud laughs in the open air cinema, where we watched it.

The absurd scenery works as an allegory for life and death itself. It often asks big questions and sometimes only hints at meaninglessness and absurdism. As the death realizes he's captured on earth for a while he opens and closes the door in the train just because he can and it doesn't matter anyways.

After all time was flying with this movie.
