Director: Tarik Saleh (Gitmo-The New Rules of War)
Writers: Tarik Saleh (Om du var jag), Fredrik Edin (TV's Rallarsving), Stig Larsson (The Rabbit Man)
Cast: Vincent Gallo (Buffalo '66), Juliette Lewis (Natural Born Killers), Sofia Helin (Blood Brothers), Udo Kier (Halloween, 2007), Stellan Skarsgard (Angels & Demons), Alexander Skarsgard (Zoolander), Fares Fares (The Fur), Shanti Roney (Julia)
Distributor: Atmo Metro
Release Date: Friday, November 6, 2009
Synopsis: Vincent Gallo is the voice of Roger, who befriends supermodel Nina (Juliette Lewis) in order to help him gain some self-control in his predictable and microscoped life. He lives in Farsta, a Stockholm suburb, in the distant future when the world has become a terrifying and dark place to live, as it runs out of its oil supply. The globe has become connected via underground networks, which Roger does all he can to avoid, as he begins to hear voices in his head once he steps into the dim world below. The Swedish animation is "depressingly beautiful," full of gloomy settings and intriguing characters, and a story that is like "1984 with subways." Unfortunately, no North American release date has been set yet for Metropia.
