Although IMDB does not classify this movie in Fantasy, I think it should be there. The atmosphere and the world you enter in this movie is fantasy in my opinion
This is not part of my all time favorites but not far behind
It is not very much known and think it is a shame cause it is a very beautifull movie
In a desolate and colorless landscape stands a dilapidated bathhouse run by a puffed-up blind man, his long-suffering wife, and their son Anton, who does all the work. He's lonely and unsophisticated, and he falls in love with the beautiful Eva, who comes to bathe with her father. When Eva and her father lose their home, they come to the bathhouse to stay, but bits of the ceiling fall on the old man and he dies. Eva blames Anton, and she seems to seek the arms of the brute Gregor. Can Anton win back her heart, get the bathhouse through a rigorous government inspection, and help keep his parents employed? Waiting out there somewhere is the paradise isle of Tuvalu
The particularity of this movie is that there are almost no dialogues, the atmosphere can be compared a bit with the City of the lost children. It's strange and beautifull One to discover
