A weird yet brilliant emotional roller coaster of a movie, I LOVE IT! - Frankelly Valdez
It all starts when Stephane (Gael Garcia Bernal, in a balls-out performance and having a ball) returns to Paris from Mexico. His father has just died, and his mother has convinced him to move back into the apartment he grew up in and take a job in the city as a calendar illustrator. Stephane shows up for his first day of work wearing his father's old, deep purple, Nehru-cut suit. He presents his new boss with a portfolio of paintings he's made for a calendar he calls, "Disastrology", with every month represented by a famous disaster, natural or otherwise. Surprisingly, the suits don't take right away to his childish paintings of jets exploding in midair, and Stephane reluctantly accepts a terrible position that amounts to sitting "in a basement gluing paper."
