A great surprise! Discovered this #film when I saw that writer, director lead actor #JulioTorres was nominated for 2 #IndependentSpiritAwards. Delightfully #Absurdist - a world where #TildaSwinton absolutely slays!

Alejandro (Julio Torres) is an aspiring toy designer from El Salvador, struggling to bring his unusual ideas to life in New York City. As time on his work visa runs out, a job assisting an erratic art-world outcast (Tilda Swinton) becomes his only hope to stay in the country and realize his dream. From writer/director Julio Torres comes a surreal adventure through the equally treacherous worlds of New York City and the U.S. Immigration system.

In his film, Julio Torres provides a trenchant interpretation of labor migration and its contradictions, possibly largely from his own experience. Exaggerated characters waft through bizarre scenarios in gaudy images.
[English] Alejandro actually wants to fulfill his childhood dream and design toys. But immigration and life in New York have their pitfalls. In his film, Julio Torres provides a trenchant interpretation of labor migration and its contradictions, possibly largely from his own experience. Exaggerated characters waft through bizarre scenarios in gaudy images. Alejandro is always dependent on someone in order not to lose his visa. And yet he helps other people more than they seem to believe. Despite this, Alejandro is not an exaggerated character - more of an anti-hero who, in a great performance, plods from scene to scene
