SFFS Screen Presents: Eldorado

Eldorado (Belgium/France 2008), Bouli Lanners’ idiosyncratic film about an unlikely encounter that leads to a journey fraught with humor, melancholy and sadness.

A pair of outsiders shares an absurdist journey through the surreal backwoods of Belgium in this eccentric, melancholy road movie. As they make their way through trying circumstances and bizarre encounters it becomes clear that something from his past is driving Yvan’s halting attempts to help his new friend.
