Imagine a city where life has grown so sad that people have no taste for living, a city where the most successful shop is the one that sells poisons and ropes to help you end your life. But the owner has just had a new baby - and he's the embodiment of joie de vivre... At the Suicide Shop, the rot has truly set in. (Wild Bunch Distribution)

Interesting subject matter with a commendable message, but the resulting film is too impersonal. If this had been made
by Tim Burton, it could’ve been a blast.

In the case of this interesting French animated film, I really liked the concept and animation, but I would probably have liked it even more if the movie had been approached in a much more depressing manner, rather than as light-hearted as it actually was. However, I have to admit that the musical numbers, for example, worked well for me and I enjoyed them very much.
