Once upon a time

Like a Grimm’s fairy tale where all is not what it seems, Once Upon a Time (2005) plays with ideas of fantasy and entertainment. A camera spins in the middle of an ordinary living room as various animals populate the scene: cats, dogs, ducks, goats, and cows, amongst others, soon fill the room in chaotic mass. What is left in the film’s end is a disordered mess and silence – a fitting end to the aftermath of imagination gone awry and without order.
