God Exists. He Lives in Brussels with his teenage daughter.

ComedyFantasy

God lives in Brussels. On Earth though, God is a coward, with pathetical morals and being odious with his family. His daughter, Ea, is bored at home and can't stand being locked up in a small apartment in ordinary Brussels, until the day she decides to revolt against her dad...

VIBE

This film feels like a delightfully off-kilter fable, brimming with irreverent humor and a distinctly European surrealism. It's a whimsical, yet sharply satirical, exploration of divine dysfunction and human agency, leaving you with a sense of playful rebellion and existential chuckles. Expect charmingly absurd scenarios.
