4.0 out of 5 starsQuirky comedy from Belgium . . .
By Ronald Scheer on April 10, 2010
Format: DVD
This trans-Atlantic comedy is an oddly unpredictable mix of story elements and characters that takes us from Belgium to Quebec and back again. The Congo and two World's Fairs figure into the plot, as do missing plans for an electric car, an emu, a solar-powered lawnmower, two restaurant owners (one of them a schoolbus driver with an arm in a cast), lousy French fries and bad coffee, a diamond chip lodged behind someone's left eye, a stroke-immobilized novelist, a village where everyone is named Legros, a birthmark in the shape of Africa, a man in a coma, and so on. The story starts "two years ago," and not only once but twice.

The thread of a narrative that holds it all together is the effort of a not-too-successful Belgian inventor to find his Canadian birth parents after discovering in middle age that he's adopted. What he finds along the way is far more than he bargained for. Off-the-wall and enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 starsreview of Congorama
By Paul Kao on May 26, 2010
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
I buy movies for the local Alliance Francaise, and this is one. It's Belgian/Quebec about a Belgian inventor who uses a sales trip to Quebec to search for his roots after he learns he was adopted from a young Quebec woman after he was born. While there, he discovers an invention that had never been developed, and he developes it in Belgium. Although he never discovers his family, we do.
