Young apprentice and daydreamer Anton lives and works in a vast, once-grand bathhouse, now ancient and crumbling, where citizens go to escape their dreary lives. Into his world comes the beautiful Eva, who represents a way out, and a lifetime of adventure...



What the Critics are Saying

"Imagine, if you will, a beloved bastard child of Charlie Chaplin and Sergei Eisenstein, or of Jean Vigo and Chuck Jones -- Delicatessen by way of Metropolis. This unique burlesque goulash feeds the soul and intoxicates the senses." -Austin Chronicle

"Viet Helmer's wildly whimsical debut film is the kind of movie that might one day find itself in the hall of fame of surreal movie weirdness alongside cult favorites like Eraserhead, Delicatessen and the avant-garde frolics of Guy Maddin." -The New York Times
