A groovy tango-soundtrack propels a striking feature following a man who sells his shadow to the devil.
The art feels familiar yet unique, as we follow silhouetted figures around a vaguely malevolent-feeling townscape - impossible to locate in terms of time or place.
This geopgraphical abstraction and sense of individual loss (of the guy wondering around with no shadow) achieves an otherworldliness and isolation that made me think of "The Trial", though that's just my interpretation, and possibly it's the wrong one cause overall there's none of Kafka's absurdity/bleakness; instead a sense of magic and exoticism.
