Aidin A Feb 13 Roy Andersson’s World of Glory is a chilling manifesto of human alienation. Stripped of his usual dark humor, Andersson crafts a vision so bleak it feels accusatory. It opens with a horrifying massacre, observed in silence—society as a passive witness. The protagonist stares at us, breaking the wall not for connection but condemnation. No smirks, no irony—only the bitter cry of a dying world. What once felt like dystopia now feels like reality. A short masterpiece, disturbingly prescient.

See more 09/23/2011 After a tremendous opening scene in which humanity becomes once again the silent viewer of disgusting atrocities, the films presents the pointless life of people in our days. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7pQG5Iv784 See more 09/19/2010 Roy Andersonâ(TM)s fascinatingly quirky but effectively chilling short about a dystopian future where everything seems very familiar but hides an emotionless totalitarian state that treats citizens like cattle. Sharp stuff, presented in the never failing Anderson style that takes reality and makes it completely dreamlike or nightmarish with subtle alterations.
