Life with an Idiot | Trailer | Theodore Ushev

After a recent foray into live-action, animation maestro Theodore Ushev returns with a Kafka‑tinged tragicomedy adapted by Ushev and his daughter Alexandra from Victor Erofeyev’s story. Dominique Pinon lends a weary, end‑of‑the‑world fatigue to Vladimir, a twice‑widowed everyman summoned by authorities. They decree he must atone for his unremarkable life by choosing an 'idiot' to share his home—an arrangement that predictably spirals into absurd conflict. Set to a screeching opera vocal, the film’s fluid watercolor on paper and jittery, hand‑painted brushstrokes—recalling Koji Yamamura’s 'A Country Doctor'—mirror Vladimir’s unstable grip on reality and the encroaching madness of his world. Ushev’s whirlwind of collapsing frames and restless color shifts ranks among his most unsettling work, leaving us to ponder: in a life ruled by spectacle and complacency, who is the real idiot?
