“Like Van Gogh, Fleischer Studios, Robert Crumb, YELLOW SUBMARINE and the abstract-thought section of Pixar’s INSIDE OUT smooshed into a great lysergic cake.” – The Guardian
A superlative animated musical discovery! Touching on a wide range of styles from 1920s Art Deco to 1960s Psychedelia and 1970s Roxy Music-style decadence, BUBBLE BATH is a hypercolored yet relatable Eastern European avant-garde opera about dating problems. This irresistible experience charts the romance between medical student Anikó (a more curvaceous post-modern Betty Boop) and shop window decorator / stoned hippie alleycat Zsolt: both unsure of their attraction to each other, the choices they’ve made and what life has in store for them.
