A surrealist vision of bureaucratic dystopia—a classic that's as biting as it is visually inventive. Gilliam’s influence on the cyberpunk aesthetic is undeniable.

Gilliam’s satirical dystopia confounds reality and delusion, with monstrous bureaucracy and shifting perspectives. The unsettling ending sticks with you like a riddle. Analyze its visual metaphors and Orwellian humor—pure food for thought.
