Well, I saw it, liked tremendously, and saw as 1984-ish vision with some rather interesting twists. As for new ideas, it seems to have more then 99% of recent films. There is all the regular stuff with an individual in a bureaucratic machine, fantasies of ideal mate, plus insanity as a "happy" escape. Very seldom do filmmakers come up with a topic that's not been beaten to death in print. Or were you talking about technical ideas? -- Mike Cherepov
