The City Of Lost Children (1995)

Is that Santa coming down the chimney? Memorably opening with one of the most nightmarish Christmas Eve scenes in cinema history, Jean-Pierre Jeunet and Marc Caro’s captivating surrealist fantasy finds a circus strongman searching for his missing brother as a scientist steals children’s dreams in a bid to turn back the clock.

Starring Ron Perlman, (Hellboy, Blade II), and Edinburgh International Film Festival favourite Dominique Pinon, (Outlander, Diva), The City of Lost Children is a visually stunning, unforgettably imaginative treat.
