A lonely, suicidal twenty-something makes friends with a waterlogged corpse and proceeds to explore his feelings while using the stiff body to chop wood, light fires and propel himself majestically through the water like a valkyrie atop a pegasus. It's like an existential Weekend at Bernie's without the supporting cast, if that makes any sense.
One of the strangest films I've seen in ages, which doesn't shy from its inherent weirdness - rather, it completely embraces it and digs even deeper. Wildly creative and original, it's a feature-length Instagram mixed with an Arcade Fire video. Music is interwoven with the spirit of the film, cropping up organically from the mouths of the two primary characters and gently sprawling until it bounces about the room like a cathedral.
The first two acts are absurdly fun, a great blend of cackle-worthy humor and, honest-to-god, legitimate poignancy. It gets a bit heady and loses touch with its silly side on the home stretch, which is a drawback, but I can't say I didn't expect that from the tone of its trailers. A true change of pace from the norm, it's bold and beautiful while the ride lasts.
