With Roy Andersson, Johan Carlsson, Martin Serner
A moving portrait of the artist at work (and at drink), this doc captures the 76 year-old Swedish auteur Roy Andersson creating his recent film, About Endlessness (screening on Sept 2 & 4). "Renowned for his brilliant tragicomic visual gags and dreamlike visions, with hints of Beckett, Fellini and Monty Python" (The Guardian), Andersson works with hand-made miniatures and trompe l'oeil to create his absurdist masterpieces.
