Meer oor hierdie fliek

In Patch Town’s dark modern fairy tale, newborn babies are plucked from cabbage patches,
turned into plastic dolls, and sold as playthings in a nightmarish, oppressive society. Jon
(Rob Ramsay), a discontented factory worker slaving away on a baby-harvesting production
line, uncovers a secret from his past that sends him searching for his long-lost mother (Zoie
Palmer). As Jon embarks on his journey with his loving wife Mary (Stephanie Pitsiladis), the
sinister Child Catcher (Julian Richings) and his diminutive beet-munching henchman (Ken
Hall) throw a wrench into his plans. An eye-popping fantasy-adventure, quirky comedy, and
rousing musical rolled into one, Patch Town “combines Soviet-era iconography, Eastern
European folklore and Western consumer-culture critique with a dash of song and dance”
(Peter Debruge, Variety).

A quirky/campy dark musical. A "popcorn" fun movie!
