Fabel

Synopsis

A woman runs over a dog, and the accident is investigated by the police. She meets a man in a gallery, and they begin a relationship. But aside from this straightforward storyline, nothing about Fabel is simple. It is an absurd film, inspired by Eugène Ionesco and Samuel Beckett’s theatre of the absurd.
