On Andersson, rather than any one film
Digger recalls Roy Andersson’s surreal, freeze-dried environments…
Visual references for the film run the gamut, ranging from Roy Andersson’s absurdist works and Yorgos Lanthimos’ Poor Things to compatriot Alfonso Cuarón’s Children of Men or even the video game Half-Life.
…as well as the bleached expressionism of Roy Andersson…
…think Roy Andersson meets Roland Emmerich…
…the whole Roy Andersson on steroids aesthetic of a pallid movie…
It's exceptionally obvious they're referencing Swedish satire master Roy Andersson and the look & style of his films as part of telling this stage satire.
