Pudding chômeur

1996 · 97 min

A bizarre, episodic satire that feels like a chaotic fever dream, full of oddball characters and surreal humour.

Gilles Carle
Genres
Comedy
Overview
Deliberately Felliniesque, this surreal and uneven Canadian satire from iconoclastic French Canadian director Gilles Carle offers an episodic look into an anarchistic, metaphorical world filled with a bizarre assortment of weirdos, wackos and misanthropes. The story roughly centers on the adventures of Yo-Yo, a young woman who is first seen acting as a high priestess for a ceremony involving the miraculous healing powers of the little boy Alphonse.
