This dark comedy is an exploration into the meaning of a life.
A director receives an inexhaustible grant to produce a play. The play he produces is an interpretation of life as he experiences it.
As his own life begins to fall apart and his health fails and the play grows in size and complexity the lines between reality and fiction disappear.
This is a beautiful film and if you persist past the abstractions the odd characters and facts of his strange world without being too unsettled you will be rewarded with a piece that has a lot to say about the futility of life and its subsequent beauty. As a comedy it is similar to "the nines", "being john malkovich", "eternal sunshine of the spotless mind" and "punch drunk love".
This film contains outstanding performances from all, it is beautifully written and will stand the test of time.
