What if a contemporary cinema genius made a movie about one of the biggest minds in the history of art? Well, one very simple answer is the wonderful, playful, childish, philosophical, and absurd film “DAAAAAALI!”

Quentin Dupieux has proven since “Rubber” to be one of the wildest, weirdest, and most innovative filmmakers of our times. There is no need to explain Salvador Dalí. I will not even try to tell you the story of this film, just that we submerge again in a film-in-film, full of references to Dalí, his work and the power of cinema. Surely inspired by Buñuel, there are different actors performing Dalí and much of his own art turns into his surroundings. We also see how the famous dream story of Buñuel and Dalí, “Un Chien Andalou”, came to life.

Just lean back and enjoy this truly crazy trip.
