Flux Gourmet (2022)
July 8, 2022 : 8:30 pm
EXCLUSIVE ST. LOUIS SCREENING!
A dysfunctional sonic collective – a band devoted to the sounds of the culinary arts – navigates rivalries internal and external in this absurdly original feast for the sense from the singular Peter Strickland (In Fabric, Duke of Burgundy).
“A sweetly flatulent satire about the irritable relationship between art and decorum, FLUX GOURMET flings us into another of the weirdo pocket worlds in which all of Strickland’s films take place. This one draws from ’70s fashion and ’80s haircuts to create a Lanthimos-like parallel universe where music is made with food (and food sometimes made from music), and kids dream about joining culinary collectives instead of becoming pop stars.” (David Ehrlich, IndieWire)
“Funny in every sense, this mad meta movie insists on its own uncompromised vision…a self-concocting, self-critiquing, self-consuming feast for the eyes, ears and outré tastes, leaving the viewer with plenty to digest once the meal is over.” (Anton Bitel, Projected Figures)
“A fully realised, immaculately tailored creation which conceals a slow-burning sense of mischief under its deliberate oddness and ornately deadpan dialogue.” (Wendy Ide, Screen International)
“Kinky, horny, grotesque, obsessive, meticulous, cruel.” (Leslie Felperin, The Hollywood Reporter)
