Driven by a divine mission, a disoriented outcast embarks on a long, murderous odyssey, indiscriminately exterminating everyone he encounters.
“Inspired by true events”. Don’t be fooled. With this genuine cinema proposition, an unofficial sequel to Time Spent with Cats Is Never Wasted (2017), Clive Will signs a metaphysical, nihilistic and surrealistic fable, that borrows as much from Lynchian nightmares as from Peckinpah's existential grime or Atsushi Yamatoya’s outrageous and absurd violence. With a frame horizontality that infinitely stretches roads and landscapes, he unleashes his tooth pulling onanist exterminator upon the whole of humanity slated for extermination. Most unsettling is no doubt the persistent impression of a film whose logic escapes all control.
