A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence
The genuinely bizarre black comedy from acclaimed Swedish director Roy Andersson.
Overview
The title of this film is probably the least strange thing about it. The third part of a thematic trilogy by Swedish filmmaker Roy Andersson 15 years in the making, A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence consists of a series of deadpan tragicomic vignettes ostensibly ‘about being a human being’.
Sexually aggressive dance instructors, a pair of morose travelling salesman and the long dead King Charles XII are just a few of the bizarre characters who inhabit this esoteric comedy, one that had us scratching our head in bafflement as often as it had us laughing.
