Where we shelve this film

Apocalypse & wastelands

After the collapse: deserts, scrap-metal rides and the struggle to survive.

Psychedelic & surreal

Dream logic, wild colours and images that ignore reality.

Our genre tags are curated classifications. These descriptions explain the shelf, not the film’s plot.
