The final part of the highly acclaimed "Living" Trilogy, Roy Andersson's A PIGEON SAT ON A BRANCH REFLECTING ON EXISTENCEtakes another sly, humorous and wholly original look at the absurdity of life. Two travelling salesmen who trade novelty items traipse glumly from one joke shop to anther failing to failing to make a living, teacher-student relationships repeatedly become inappropriate at a flamenco dance lesson, and King Charles XII of Sweden drops by a bar with an 18th century army in tow, looking for a lover and a modern day peasant to punish. This is the skewed and unique world of Roy Andersson where disparate segments of humanity are exhibited and coalesce to form a poignant and darkly funny commentary on society and how we should ultimately embrace it.
