About The Fall
Los Angeles, circa 1920s: a young immigrant girl finds herself in a hospital recovering from a fall. She strikes up a friendship with a bedridden man, who captivates her with a whimsical story that removes her far from the hospital doldrums into the exotic landscapes of her imagination. [117 min; drama, fantasy; English]
"The Fall is a movie whose every frame pulsates with the desire to be a transportive, transcendent work of cinema. And each one of said frames is full of visual bedazzlement and wonder." — Glenn Kenny, Premiere
"An achingly beautiful movie." — Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle
"A movie that you might want to see for no other reason than because it exists. There will never be another like it." — Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
