In order to regain custody of her daughter, Mona must tell a social worker her story. In her tale, she is sold into slavery and lands in a swank, debauched Liverpool brothel where the patrons enact their literary/sexual fantasies with Lolita, St. Joan, and Desdemona.
Hungary’s official selection for the Oscars® (even if it was too wild for the Academy), Bibliothèque Pascal invades Lynchian territory and pushes the boundaries even further, creating both a nightmarish fantasia and a very human story about a woman who uses fantasy to dull her pain.
