Une langue universelle - Avis

In Rankin’s film, whatever absurdity catches your eye, like a walking tinsel-filled Christmas tree or face-swapped characters, it looks and feels like it fits right into his strange new world, and it’s one that I hope to visit again soon. 

...builds beautiful bridges of absurdity.

To watch “Universal Language” is to feel as if you’ve been privileged to a brief and memorable peek.

A warm Universal Language persists through this comedy's bland, absurd tundra.

In Rankin’s film, whatever absurdity catches your eye, like a walking tinsel-filled Christmas tree or face-swapped characters, it looks and feels like it fits right into his strange new world, and it’s one that I hope to visit again soon. 

...the film’s oneiric realm does enable a searching psychological analysis of the desire to assimilate and find a sense of belonging.

Tanken om det universella språket är däremot tydlig och Rankin tycks vilja säga oss att vi alla hör ihop och att det är just kulturen som binder oss samman.

Varm komedi i Roy Anderssons anda.
