S.O.S. Extraterrestria

The world as a plaything of a giantess of the universe. A Godzilla-imitator treading her own path. The extra-terrestrial giantess in the streets of a large city, acting senselessly, causing destruction, copulating with the Eiffel Tower. Orchestrated emotion, melodrama, defamation through infantile clamour and absurdist costume, pastiche make-up and bizarre Body-Art performances. E.T. staggers through the city at night, looking like Mimi Mimus, and catching little projected people in her hand, recalling the beloved giant ape of the horror films. And the war-disaster-movie genre looks on open-mouthed, as, in the end, a toy-city (a wanna-be real city) laconically collapses. (Stefan Grisseman)
