The film deals loosely with the adventures of the grizzled Gustav who captains a ship – a giant floating ‘snailboat’ – with a crew of talking animals and lumbering sailors in blackface. It unspools like a perverse children’s story book, all at once cuddly cute, grotesquely obscene and beyond absurd as normal narrative logic shatters, giving way to an episodic, free-associative structure that one critic likened to “cinematic memory association.”
if you get to the end of this movie, you ll need ages to get it out of your mind. its like terry gilliam, alejandro jodorowsky, federico fellini & jan svankmajer together on acid. it is the definitely the safest trip you can have. incredible sets and a story that is out of this world. you can watch it several times, and still its going to be hard to explain your friends what you have seen. if you like rare movies, here you go… i just know people who hate this movie or simply love it. i do love it! taking in mind the whole German cinema… i m glad that wenzel storch exists. and i hope there will be more like this!
