Film description
Beauty, love, work... sometimes it just isn’t worth getting out of bed for. Bloody Mondays & Strawberry Pies examines the role of boredom in the human condition by showing the lives of a 32-year-old Wall street stockbroker who makes millions a year, a desert nomad who does nothing all day, the last living female spy from World War II, a painter who has been painting Time for the last 42 years, and the first school shooter in history: Brenda Spencer who, at the age of 16 shot eleven people because: “I don’t like Mondays”. The actor John Malkovich gives voice to the inner bored human being. His fascinating timbre crawls under your skin and wonders: “How many people in the world are like me?” The answers are right there in the silent Sahara of your mind.
