WRONG World Cinema

Dolph Springer (the wonderful Jack Plotnick) awakens one morning to realize he has tragically lost the love of his life – his dog, Paul. So begins WRONG, the micro-epic tale of Dolph’s quest to reunite with his best friend and set his world right. Things quickly spiral into the realm of the absurd. Using epic super-realism, Quentin Dupleux creates a surrealist world tinged with a heightened reality bordering on the bizarre. Impeccably cast and directed, Dupleux’s gifted company raises the tension of existence so high that audiences have no choice but to laugh at the absurdity of it all. The director’s previously fantastical trademarks are also on display here. Shadowy organizations and magical/supernatural occurrences are front and center. But what makes WRONG such a bold step forward for this artist is his uncanny control over the diction, breadth and mise en scene of this world, creating a dizzying, absurdist canvas you won’t forget.
