A British Picture

Love in her eyes sits playing, and sheds delicious death

84 min · Comedy, Drama

A British Picture follows Walter, an eccentric foreigner adrift in London with his pet skull Galathea, hopelessly in love with his landlady Charlotte. Part travelogue, part experimental satire of English cinema clichés, the film frames the city as a canvas where images break free of their restraints.
