this film takes place thoroughly in an elevator as it goes up and down 5 floors of one building. each floor has residents and represents certain layer of our civilization. it is magnifying in all and each and every form from storytelling to characterization of people in the film. Shokof,s originality of concept, Directing and comic skills can blow your mind away.the film is so engaging that after the screening every viewer had a wish list of scenes wanting to be added to the film, and oddly enough all those wishes could be applied to a remake of this genius concept. everything is possible in making a remake, and i do wish to see a serious effort to make a giant film as a remake of this movie gem. just as strange as the titles of Shokof films always have been(which really perhaps has influenced a whole generation of film titles)Venussian Tabutasco should actually also have a hidden meaning that would be out of the patience of this article if i had to write what he said in the press interview after the screening at the BAPFF film festival in Berlin. this outstanding experimental attempt gets a 10 for just existing+ one of the finest use of sound and music ever by Tom Dokoupil again. the sound effects are a whole film by itself
