Ok soo I guess that this is one of the most confusing movies I have ever seen.I watched it about half year ago and I still dont think about some parts.It has more hiden truths in it,and surealism.It's doesnt keep your atention actually all the time but it leaves kinda sick and longlasting felling.I think it's worth watching.
Description:This 70's experimental apocalyptic fairy tale—directed by the incomparable Louis Malle—is a single long perverse variation upon "Alice in Wonderland", with hints of "Goldilocks and the Three Bears."

The intimacy is astounding in close-ups of nature and well-framed interiors. In the world of the film, there is war between the men and the women. The protagonist, a young girl, tries to escape this reality and comes to a hidden place where a strange unicorn lives with a family: Sister, Brother, many children and an old woman who never leaves her bed but stays in contact with the world through her radio. The overall narrative, however, is allegorical, convoluted, and imagistic, with more turns than can easily be synopsized. Dialogue is minimal, often whispered and obtuse, combining quotes from Shakespeare, snippets of existential philosophy, and schizophrenic characterizations.

"Malle's experimental and dreamlike apocalyptic fairytale. A young girl tries to escape film's reality and comes to a hidden place where a strange unicorn lives with a family: Sister, Brother, many children and an old woman that never leaves her bed but stays in contact with the world through her radio. Intriguing stuff.
That's a one big fat-ass unicorn for sure."
