Then the Queen of Roses returns to her original state. The Queen Bee is saddened by the loss of her beautiful companion and, after inhaling the fragrance of the roses, falls asleep. A spider spins its web over her and traps her, but a swarm of bees quickly arrives and frees their Queen. The final scene is a graceful ballet featuring charming ballerinas portraying roses and bees.

Destino
Rated 7.2 on TMDB
Film, 2003
Short film to a song of love lost and rediscovered, a woman sees and undergoes surreal transformations. Her lover's face melts off, she dons a dress from the shadow of a bell and becomes a dandelion, ants crawl out of a hand and become Frenchmen riding bicycles. Not to mention the turtles with faces on their backs that collide to form a ballerina, or the bizarre baseball game.
Days of Darkness

Rated 6.5 on TMDB

Film, 2007

Jean-Marc is a man without qualities living in times that are out of joint. His wife and children ignore him; he's a mid-level government functionary in Montreal doing his job without care. He has an active imagination of sexual conquest, but his only real feelings come when he visits his aged mother, whose health is failing. When his wife leaves abruptly to work in Toronto, Jean-Marc sets out to reorder things with his daughters, his social life, and at work. In a world that at best is a farce, does he stand a chance?

Beauty and the Beast

Rated 7.5 on TMDB

The story of a gentle-hearted beast in love with a simple and beautiful girl. She is drawn to the repellent but strangely fascinating Beast, who tests her fidelity by giving her a key, telling her that if she doesn't return it to him by a specific time, he will die of grief. She is unable to return the key on time, but it is revealed that the Beast is the genuinely handsome one. A simple tale of tragic love that turns into a surreal vision of death, desire, and beauty.
