I saw this recently at the Leeds International Film Festival. Thoroughly enjoyable, this quirky comedy is actually rather inoffensive given the title. With such deep religious and moral undertones the movie does well not to take itself too seriously. While offbeat and occasionally gory, on the whole it is a genuinely unique and humorous offering. The film begins a bang, a scene which gives an unusual and shocking introduction to 'GOD', far from benevolent he's angry and in no mood for messing about. Cut to a spooky Spanish chateau on a stormy night and a miss matched husband and wife preparing dinner while they await the arrival of his father and brother for a holiday get together. Little do they all know they'll soon be entertaining another unexpected and ,as it turns out, unwanted guest. With flush of an upstairs toilet the direction of their night,the rest of their lives and, it seems, the small matter of the fate of humanity are thrown into chaos.

I wish more people could or would watch this movie, because its one of the best I've seen all through the lockdown. The story involves four family members meeting for dinner on New Year's Eve, when God turns up unexpectedly (I guess it's never expectedly). He tells them the world will end at dawn, except for two survivors, which they must choose.The four main characters are all delightfully human (weird), including the grandad with his love of sex workers and cannabis, the two brothers (one insecure, and one suicidal) and the wonderful, unfaithful wife of the older brother. It's set in the married couple's old rural house, which is beautifully and madly adorned with old furniture, amazing ornaments, fascinating toys and stuffed animals. The camerawork, colouring, editing and directing are as excellent as the acting and script. My favourite line was "God's an atheist!", but the script is hilarious and thought-provoking in equal amounts, throughout the movie. It's a great study of human and divine nature. Highly recommended.
