Milocrorze - a Love Story
Milocrorze – A Love Story is a wild and wacky kitsch feast of surreal storylines, vibrant colours, delightfully outlandish performances and shimmering sexuality. Almost impossible to define - it has samurai fights, oddball fantasies and retro musical dance scenes - but is delivered with such zest and energy that it is almost impossible to take your eyes of it for fear of missing what happens next.
The film opens in vibrant - almost Tim Burton - fantasy style as an orange-haired young boy named Ovreneli Vreneligare (with a taste for lime green sweaters and red check trousers) falls in
love with a strange and beautiful woman named Milocrorze…he is about seven and she is at least four times his age. She leaves him for a sleazy gent named Saramandala Quorenzolich, leaving Ovreneli so distraught that he covers the hole in his heart with a saucepan lid.
At its heart this is simply a film about falling in love, but it is presented in a funny post-punk fantasy fashion - rather like if Tim Burton and Quentin Tarantino had teamed to make a action-comedy-romance. In the strange and wonderful world of Milocrorze – A Love Story virtually anything can happen.
