quietearth [Celluloid 05.14.12] Spain post apocalyptic comedy drama

While this is a couple of years old it barely got attention.

Right behind news that my favorite cult director is raising coin for his next project is word that Pierre Spengler is also looking for funding to do an adaptation of Jodorowsky's comic Bouncer.
