A Distress Call From The Other World
A bizarre supernatural mystery thriller that frequently borders on the surreal, the tour-de-force scene in this one blends live action and animation to depict an elevator ride that just keeps on going... beyond the elevator shaft, beyond the local bridge, and down into the waters below where a murdered man's restless soul attempts to communicate with the living in order to find justice and revenge for his killing.

Burning Casablanca (2021)
5.9 /10
In hellish Casablanca, a car-crash sets ablaze a burning, passionate love story between has-been rocker Larsen and the streetwise amazon Rajae. An unspoken trauma is their common history; rock n' roll their mutual saviour. Larsen's snakeskin-covered guitar and Rajae's liquid gold voice could be heaven, if only everything from his drug-induced visions to her music-buff pimp didn't get in the way. The only hope for their blooming romance is to skip this ferocious town. Is there a way out of this crazy Moroccan underworld with its menagerie of sadistic cops, venomous snakes, metal concerts and shotgun-wielding modern-day Calamity Janes? For these punk Romeo and Juliet, maybe the answer lies in a song - the one they've been writing and dreaming together : Zanka Contact
