La sonámbula (1998)
Strange futuristic movie resembling Fritz Lang's Metropolis
I've seen this movie in a festival in Porto, Portugal called Fantasporto. I was amazed because it didn't win a single prize and it was my favorite movie in the festival. It's a strange, curious journey into a black & white world where a town was ravaged by an explosion in a chemical plant and almost everybody lost their memories. A team was assembled to try to reconstruct the lives of all these people and one of the main tools they use is dream analysis. They are baffled by a strange woman who never sleeps but has daydreams of a mystical resistance fighter who has promised to bring down the system. Confusing and extremely beautiful, this movie reminds us of the works of George Orwell, the great Twilight Zone series and the classic Metropolis by Fritz Lang. Unmissable by fans of dark, strange, thought-provoking movies.
