One of Strickland’s insular alternate-reality weirdo movies, about an artistic residency by a group of “sonic caterers,” is secretly a comedy about bandmate relationships. “I’d say misunderstanding between us is probably the key to our sound.” Of course it looks excellent.<\/p>\n

On the residency side of things, Gwendoline Christie (returning from In Fabric<\/a><\/em>) is famed Director Jan. Beardy journalist Stones, documenting the musicians, is a Greek guy from Chevalier<\/a><\/em> whose digestive issues are more fascinating to the group than to hilariously snipey Dr. Glock. After music performances, the invited audience “pays tribute” (sexually), which Stones also documents. And another music group was rejected from the institute, is now threatening violence. In a tie-in to Crimes of the Future<\/a><\/em>, everyone in this movie wants to be in a culinary art collective.<\/p>\n

The band is led by Strickland muse Fatma Mohamed, who says within earshot of the others that they’re not a collective – she’s the leader and the others are replaceable. Ariane Labed and Asa Butterfield (Hugo<\/a> himself) make up the rest of the trio. Asa is especially cute in this – his emo haircut sticking out through the eyeholes of his crime-catsuit is a nice touch.<\/p>\n
