Sick of it All

Zion is the best thing about this quirky, funny little film. I caught it totally randomly, just appeared on my TV screen, I decided to watch because there was nothing else of interest on. Weird description: 'inspired by "The Little Prince", I had no clue what French story they referred to. Still, the plot just got weirder and weirder, but L. P., the character played by 8 year old Zion, delivered some of the funniest lines with the dead-pan professionalism of a seasoned actor. Why hasn't he done other movies or TV? The kid is a gem. Hope to see more from him. This movie is funny, definitely worth a watch. And yes, there's a guy named Barbra!

The film is done in black and white with a film noir kind of feel to it, and takes place inside an apartment, for the entirety of the film. The plot focuses on a telephone insurance salesman on a particular day in his life - which it seems his life has been building to for some time. The film is quirky and there are a couple of genuine laugh out loud/wtf moments. If you like quirky films it's worth a watch.
