In a deserted industrial area on the edge of town, somewhere in Eastern Europe, there is a bathtub standing in the middle of an empty workshop. Eckermann, the meteorologist is having a bath in it. He spends most of his time daydreaming which earned him the nickname Little Cloud with his friends. He's got two friends: Berlioz, the restless hedonist and Vero, the strong and silent tough guy of the factories. The industrial area is going to be demolished very soon. The military unit controlling the industrial site orders everyone to evacuate the area which is being closed down - the guys need to move out.

Review:

IMHO this film is comparable to Stalker. A great anti-utopia with very good music! I could understand what is going on only when I saw it on the 3rd time. :-) It was taken in a beer factory in Budapest. The title is done with the help of Borland Turbo C 2.0 (does anybody remember this IDE? :-). The whole movie is very dark, rude and somehow morbid. Everybody want to leave this brake-down-looking world, but they have to get some money first. One of them creates a program, one get some money and they put on the horse-racing. Not easy to find a place where You can watch it, but it worth to see it! I have the movie on VHS (recorded from the TV) and the music on LP.
