CGiii Comment

It was butchered by the critics and then re-released under a different name - The Boy who Could Fly - and then re-butchered by the critics...it's not hard to see why.

This is a metaphorical nightmare of undiluted pretension.

It may be a lack of knowledge...but, are Norwegians really that weird? The Swedes think so.

Only watch this if the alternative is death by a slow vicious hand.

The(ir) Blurb...

Surreal tale of a friendless, lonely boy who dreams of escape from a broken home with an neglectful, promiscuous. alcoholic mother and self-centered, clueless, absent father.
