The Physics of Sorrow
Half poetische schizofilm, half best wel peak shit. 3 sterren omdat het mijn favoriete scene van the grand budapest hotel kopieert.

Ce que j’ai appris de ce film c’est qu’il existe des Bulgariens à Montréal qui ont fait plus dans leurs premières 23 années de leur vie que moi.
