A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence

Like a modern-day Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, Sam (Nils Westblom) and Jonathan (Holger Andersson), two traveling salesmen peddling novelty items, take us wandering through human destiny in the exactingly composed, wryly absurdist third installment in director Roy Andersson’s Living Trilogy. It is a journey that unveils the beauty of single moments, the pettiness of others, the humor and tragedy hidden within us, and life’s grandeur as well as the ultimate frailty of humanity.

Starring Holger Andersson, Nisse Vestblom, Viktor Gyllenberg
