A young wannabe musician, Jon (Domhnall Gleeson) finds himself out of his depth when he joins an avant-garde pop band led by the mysterious and enigmatic Frank (Michael Fassbender), a musical genius who hides himself inside a large fake head, and his terrifying bandmate Clara (Maggie Gyllenhaal, 'The Kindergarten Teacher'). ★★★★ "Profoundly weird – and perhaps also weirdly profound" - Kate Muir, The Times ★★★★ "A weird, wonderful movie that dances to a different beat" - Mark Kermode, The Observer ★★★★ "Beguiling tragicomic fable" - Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
