  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Absurd, enigmatic, and often inscrutable, but almost-narrative tales that have flavors here and there of: Gothic fiction, Grimm's Fairy Tales, Angela Carter, Alice in Wonderland, Studio Ghibli, David Lynch, Alexander Jodorosky, Luis Buñuel, Last Year at Marienbad, C.S. Lewis, and Gabriel García Márquez. It made me laugh a lot, but I didn't love it.

This feels like someone telling me about their dreams, but in a compelling way.
